Personally I don't like beer (dare I say that on this thread) - think it's horrible stuff, but do enjoy other liquid 'refreshments'. Cheers!!!!

On the subject of Cheers (the TV series) Norm Peterson my hero :D

Woody: Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?
Norm: Alright, but stop me at one. Make that one-thirty.

Or is more like how I interpret it. Everything is :cool: as long as you can discern the fridge through a haze of alcohol and fragrant smoke:theband:

Had my first pint in the catholic club. I think thats what it was called. Upstairs in Warner street Accy. (I think.) Tony Boardman and me.We were only kids about 14, dont know how we got away with it. Used to drink in the Royal and Globe on blackburn road with me dad and also in the Richmond. Bob Burnside Gerrald Moores and me used to drink in the Australian. My mate Gerrald Moores dad was gaffer at the time. Got done in the Bridge when I was 17. £5 for drinking underage. I was the oldest in the pub at the time.
Drunk in most pubs in Accy,Ossy and Blackburn in the 60s. The last pint I had in Accy was in the Black Horse. about 1969. Moved south for work and crap ale.

Well blow me down with a feather Mog.. I went to Dennis Cook's funeral yesterday (See Accy Stanley thread) and afterwards at Enfield CC... young Mr Moores was there. :) I was completely thrown at first because he was with Barbara (Haining)...I thought I had fallen through a worm hole and gone back in time and space :-)
Well some ales were supped and some reminiscing I can tell you.....
He is still living down Church and reckons Bob B is back in Accy living back at his mums up Spring Hill.
Anyroad he has asked me to ask you can you remember you and him locking Wayne Fontana in the bogs at the Con.....?;)
I'll let you share that with the forum :D
I'll pm you his e-mail and I've told him to get on here.

Yes I do remember it well. Wayne was drinking in the bar before hand. Dont know why we done it though but he tried to autograph my hand and I wasnt having any of that. Are you sure about Bob, I was told he had passed away a few years ago. You sure because he would be 67 just before this coming christmas. Living with his mam sounds a bit unusal mate.

Jezz reckons that about Bob...did question it with him because I too (and Connie) had heard he has passed ???
Truth be told I reckon I would have heard from Dennis Entwistle if he was back in town ???
I'll do some checking with all the usual suspects.

Hey and Jezz reckons you fell down the Con stairs showing off Wayne Fontana's autograph and not looking where you were going ;)

I lived next door to Gerry Moores in Church from 1995 to 2002.

So he has got himself yet another woman. His 2nd wife left him and a rowdy girlfriend moved in during those years.

Any woman will be an improvement on that rowdy female - they battled on the street as well as in the house (police were called often).

She was the main reason I moved.
