"First night in here? Well, you'll get used to us. We're a livly pub. It's calmed down a bit now, but it comes in waves. Not going to ask you what you're doing here, never do, that's one of our few rules. We get a lot of rendezvousers here you see, but we're also stong on couples, don't get me wrong. They either come in pairs or end up that way. That woman over there is my wife, bitch. I run this place virtually on my own. we've been here bloody years. in fact we met outside this pub, we had our first drink in here, we had our twentyfirst in here, our wedding reception here, and now we bloody own the place. i only did it for her, it's what she'd always wanted. I've done some knocking through recently, got the walls down, made it all into one. You can get around better, and more eyes can meet across the room. better than, better for business and pleasure, and for keeping an eye on that roving tart.... I wouldn't mind a bloody drink myself, i'll have one later. it's a constant battle keeping you throat away from the stock. it really is the landlords last temtation, becausethis is it, for us proprietors. this is our life, these bar sides, to them wall sides and that's it. people and pints, and measures, and rolling out the bloody barrel. working and social life and mixtured, a cocktail you can't get away from. untill night when we fall knacked into bed, but i'm not complaining, no ,no. as long as many mouths are clacking at many glasses, and the tills keep on singing. what more could a publican want?"
