GET OUT - YOU'RE BARRED!!!!..Why?
Just following on from the thread on 1st Pint, 1st local.....I wonder how many of you have fond memories of being barred from local hostelries? In my case - and this may seem surprising - my only pub was the so-called Bees Knees. That occaision was back in 1974, when I pebbledashed the gents loos with an eclectric mixture of carrot and keg ale.
The funny thing was, I never went back there until about 5 years ago for a meet up with some of you lot on the Accy Web....and guest what? Some monkey came up to me and told me to get out because my footware was not appropriate (there were one or two others as well)..but did they have my piccy behind the bar after all these years? After all, I'm a good boy, really. |

Barred for crying "huey" in the Derby (as was)? Must have gone upmarket by '74. In the late 60's you could chuck up with complete impunity. Ian would just wipe it down with water and disinfectant, then ask you what you wanted for your next drink. :D

Re: GET OUT - YOU'RE BARRED!!!!..Why?
too many to even remember suppose the funniest was the "Horseshoe" on union rd ossy, one friday night, chucked up in the back room, went n told the landlord n asked fer a mop n bucket, when to my horror he produced a baynot from behind the bar n came charging at me,:D never ran as fast in me life.:D got past palladium n he gave up, so we carried on down union rd cursing him etc, got just before Church station n was roadworks wi the owd Red lanterns marking the hole, kicked em down the hole in temper into about 9" of water, used to be a "Police Substation" just under the bridge across rd, a plod had just left it n heard the racket, needless to say he told me to get down the trench n get the lamps out, was sodden me suit n shoes ruined, but was better than getting done! certainly a friday night to remember, happy days.:D would be about mid/late 60s.

Ace Of Spades club, Whalley, around 1966, Matt Monroe, was singing, Born Free, I Threw up into my mates lap, his brand new suit, he chased me into the loo, I climbed out the window, riped my pants on the way down the drain pipe, wasnt barred but didnt go back for a while. Last time I saw Matt Monroe as well. I think the last artist I saw there was Dennis Lotis.

Re: GET OUT - YOU'RE BARRED!!!!..Why?
I suspect it will probably be easier for Cashy to make a list of Hyndburn pubs he's not been barred from....it shouldn't take long to type out both names.

Never been banned but was asked for ID at the Willow Mount WMC
Would not have minded but I was drinking Blackcurrant and Lemonade Plus I was over 18. |
Re: GET OUT - YOU'RE BARRED!!!!..Why?
I used to work with Cashy - he told us brilliant stories every dinner time. He would have you laughing so much your sides would hurt.

Remember being banned from the Blue Delileh in the 60s for sitting too long with a hot Vimpto or coffee. Banned along with guys named John Duffy, Tom and Steve. We used to scrimp on the drinks , but put our money in the jukebox.
Years later and all grown up i revisited the old place on a visit to accrington and Chris called me madam when asking what i wanted. Should i be insulted or pleased? |

Got banned from the Dahlia for exactly the same reason...also got banned for snogging with a girl called Christina. Chris was a nice bloke though, and usually forgot about it after a few days. Absolutely top-notch jukebox in there too. I see it's the Blue Lagoon amusement arcade these days. A sad end to a great 60's/70's institution.

Re: GET OUT - YOU'RE BARRED!!!!..Why?
I confess to having a short (token) ban from the Cross Guns.
After all, I did ask the landlord for a pint of tapwater and told him who I would be pouring it on. |
