Called in for a pint and reflection after attending the funeral if an old mate of mine. I used to frequent this pub as a regular from the late 60's to the early 80's and called in for a pint and to remember the good old days.

She did not know what a cognac was and had to ask her boss and then became belligerent and angry when we asked for a cabernet. This is a low class place. A counsel estate girl in short shorts, low cut shirt, and a bad mouth may work for some but not those with money to spend. This could be a really quaint little spot.
