AN IRISH BUS MEDLEY TONIGHT

think of a link, oh yes Mandy is off to Ireland next Tuesday when I head off to the Balkans, anyway a random dip into my own Irish bus archive for today and think of Ireland we may think of drink which takes us to the Crown at lower Peover where the refugees, customers and staff were bedded down for the evening last night. The Three Greyhounds closed on Tuesday night and is now shut up pending the brewery deciding what to do with it, once a farm it has been a public house for a good many years now and is pretty ancient really. Now owned by Heineken the S&N houses don't have managers just tenants. The Crown was it's usual frosty self where customers battle past family to get to the bar, come to think of it neither Simon at the Greyhound or the landlady at the Crown did / do much to encourage punters. Alex from Goostrey piped up last night that he never did like the beer at the Greyhound, so why did he go there for so many years. Bernie the bar manager's birthday tonight so Dianne has got a cake and we'll pop round to the Crown to see them this evening. Our friend Sue is with us and we'll have a nice roast lamb dinner before settling down to Corrie. Eh its nice being British sometimes.
