Changed total after the old guvenor John left - new mob did not seem bothered about anything. Was closed before Bournemouth game, cant see it reopening. Yet another pub goes......
Is that the one that used to be The Million Hare, and before that the Lord Howick? Haven't been in there since 1973. (Not really doing my bit to keep it going, am I?) :-)
Used to live around the corner. Was always one of those boozers where everyone would turn around whenever anyone walked in the place - always seemed a bit dodge.

Time served appreniceship in the Howick. Remember the upstairs bar for a late one, then stroll back to petrol garages (opposite doom and gloom) for a microwaved chicken hero.

I was told that The Victoria was on fire the other night...did it finally fall over?

Spent the first 14 years of my life living opposite The Vic (648 Woolwich Road). Our house was knocked down to build a basketball court for the drug dealers to serve up in.

It's such a shame the number of pubs closing down, especially in all the less-well-off former 'white' working class areas.
Yes, it's more expensive than drinking at home and in a lot if areas the ethnic dynamic has changed but even so, with the number of closures, as someone said, they'll be no pubs left.
All across the nation a culture change has taken place where we don't want to socially interact with others. 'The Pub is the past' - the people have voted.
To be fair, Clancys was a bit of a hole and had seen better days but it seems the whole country don't want to pop out to their local for a pint anymore to their local and would rather be sitting in watching TV or playing on their XBox.

Here in Belfast the graffiti on the walls says 'Heroin dealers will be shot'. Which sounds fair to me.
