I have never admitted this before in public but............. I was barred from the Funnies. It was so not my fault.:( There was a lady who used to frequent the place and I use the term lady loosley. She was a bit of a bugger and used to try and cop off with other women. She fondled my bum one night in the toilets so I thumped her. As she was a regular and knew all the staff, they barred me instead (I never lived it down)
I used to work behind the bar in the Cock and Bull and Corners. I did the odd friday night when I was only 15/16. Billy Mac used to look after me and keep the weirdos away. Loved that pub.:D

dont wory your not the only one to be banned from funnies it didnt take much lol and anyway bans didnt realy last that long

glad to see someone else remembers the corners as a damn good pub i had many a good night there but thats was when the corners,broadway and hope and anchor were the best pubs by far

i forget names but there was a guy who worked there who used to collect the glasses and serve behind the bar

he was a pretty big bloke and if memory serves me right after corners got demolished he bough an ice cream van , his name may have been john but it was a long time ago when i drank there and was in my early days of boozing

Fancy getting barred from the funnies...LOL...glad you remember it as the cock and bull, Billy was a great bloke, lots of good memories from the funnies and corners!!!!
 
The Blockade was one of the best pubs in Accy. Best juke box for miles. The back room ("Hell's Kitchen") always had a strange aroma. People tell me it was due to the smoking of herbal cigarettes.
 
yeah remember the strange aroma of the blockade.abit similar to the duke of welly these days,when i go in to pick customers that same aroma is around
