Accrington library have told me that he had the Antley Inn in 1961. They called him Julian. I wonder if that is what he called himself as he didn't like Julius?

Am I right in that the Antley is closed? Is it still standing.

Later in the 60s, a mate of mine took the pub. On talking over, he noticed that the cellar was swarming with cockroaches. He phoned the area manager for advise - " Get some lads to find you at least one frog and put it down there " He did and was not troubled further as the frog (s?) ate them all.
