Cookie Monster Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Wasn't it because you were roaring drunk? Was actually quite sober, especially after getting the bill for the last round. [emoji44] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t blame publicans I remember the days when I used to frequent pubs and you’d cringe if a funeral mob came in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Monster Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Personally I’ve never had any problems in the past with attending an informal wake in pubs but I have witnessed issues from groups in the past so understand why publicans take such measures. One of my pals had his fathers wake in one of the booths at the Bull Inn as it was a quiet affair. Most events I have ever attended though either take place in private at golf clubs, bowling clubs or hotels and these tend to be sedate affairs compared to pub crawls.Was just surprised but understand where they are coming from. I had actually changed my tie but my mate never remembered I'd be going to a pub after or we might have got away with being at a funeral.Went to a quiz in Vodka Wodka or was it Wodka Vodka after my grans funeral about 15 years ago and 4 of us won £240 [emoji1787]Anyways I don't think the barman was happy when my cuz who had been in for a couple of hours with her mates before we arrived, informed him she'd been to the same funeral.

Now that Nicky and Jo run the pub I don't know if that policy is still in force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
