To all drinkers and pub landlords viewing this thread. Did you realise that the leading manufacturer of beer mats in this country is right on your doorstep?
Absorbent Dripmats (or Nayler the Printer) at Church Kirk. Worked for them for a total of 7 years in all. Used to get together a package of around 50 beer mats for collectors @ £ 1 plus P & P. Gawd wish I had kept some now, bet they are selling like hot cakes on E-Bay now.
