| Brought to mind some memories of when pubs were packed with folks having a really good time, very often with a piano playing and someone would always get up to sing, there was some good singers too. |

| I think you're bang on there Cyril. Go in a typical pub today and they're all staring at sky sports or mobile phones. |

| All it needs is for Howard to start 'suspecting' where the merry makers are and what time it is! |

| The wallpaper in this establishment would appear to consist of pages taken from the Manchester Guardian, a vast improvement on the Spanish themed decor of the Worthington in my view. |

| It would probably be when a pint of mild was 10d, and closing time was 10.30pm & 10pm on a Sunday. 3pm in the afternoon. |
