    Brother why do you suggest that pubs are dodgy? It’s people that mean the pub opens it’s doors. Every pub in Britain is dodgy. It’s how you speak to and treat the patrons. If you’re sound with people you’ll be looked after. If you’re a bam you’ll face trouble. That’s the same all over Britain.

    None of those pubs looked dodgy at all , everyone looked very chilled out , I’ve been in pubs where you could cut the atmosphere with a knife , all it would take to set things off is a “ dirty look “ at someone , some header taking offence where none was meant .
    The craziest pub I was in was the Bogside Inn recently demolished but back in the early 70’s it had a machine gun post set up at the front door to stop bomb attacks , the atmosphere inside was always relaxed as everyone knew each other but if a stranger walked in it was like a Tarantino moment , those were the days though , you enjoyed every minute like it was your last because there was a high chance it could be 😂
