There was a pub close to school .... came out of the school, turned right, past the bus stop, and only a short walk .... but for the life of me, I can't remember the name of the place ... it was definitely on a corner ... and I did go in several times, esp. during exams .... damn memory is always the second thing to go

And for the record: I still think Lions sucks .... tho' not as bad as Massey's
