ANOTHER FRUITFUL NIGHT BEHIND THE BAR

During one of the quieter periods of the night I tried to persuade Dave Hall that "Lola" by The Kinks is actually a song about a man who loves his truck which is a "low loader, low-low-low-low loader".

After 20 pints of Guinness he really will believe anything.

In other news....

Caught whistle player Darren minesweeping. Told him if I caught him again I would bar him. He then handed over his stash of "recovered pints". I felt slighty evil and bad - 'cos come on we've all done it, (as Phil Carr's mate said when talking to his mates about shoving his wifes vibrator up his arse).

"he has some whiskey dreggs, he has some vodka dreggs,

he has some lager dreggs, he has some cider dreggs...."

Other than that it was pretty standard.
