You should commandeer the decks and play that Buccaneer tune!unfortunately its irish cunt day so the pub i went into was blasting out enya and U2 so im taking refuge in a friends house with some lagers
the one pub that's left in our village suffered from having three guys, who my dad kindly refers to as 'the three idiots', sat at the bar all the time no matter who the landlord happened to be at any given moment. making it their territory. its annoying when its other people doing it. nice when you do it.ive been thinking more generally about pubs and how so many pubs specialise in creating an atmosphere of total alienation. which i sort of dont mind. and that its so often a choice between alienation and trespassing on someone elses territory, whether thats old irish alcoholics, old cockney alcoholics or old west indian alcoholics.
@craner is like me. he literally doesnt know a single person in all of wales to even nod and say hello to. after living there for the last 15 years. i respect that and relate to it.
thats when i would stop going. even though i have spent years as the person who recognises you and from that side of the counter it feels quite nice.this happens to me at coffee shops. because i get one on my way to work in the morning. once they start recognising me the pressure is on. i don't like it.
are these selfies?
