RSS FEED IDEMS: Lost in Lancaster
- Merchants on Tuesday Evening
New Item: I used to spend quite a lot of time in this pub, years ago. Due to its unique architecture it scores an immediate bonus over all modern pubs - it's a 1688 wine cellar.
- Blue Anchor, Early Tuesday Night
New Item: The last time I was in here my friend wet his pants. No due to excitement, you understand, but due to the quarter of cannabis that he ate about an hour before.
- The Sir Richard Owen on a Thursday Night
New Item: The amount of wheelchairs, disabled people and elderly, whilst laudable in a social sense, when combined with the cafeteria-like, no-music environment of the pub gives the general impression of a care-in-the-community day-centre. With alcohol.
- Bella Italia on a Thursday Evening
New Item: It had been a long time since we played the Restaurant Game, so on Thursday night we headed out, determined not to do so now.
- The Brown Cow at Midnight on Friday
New Item: How Now? Not so well, it seems if the overflowing ashtrays and beer-stained carpet are anything to go by as we wander in on Friday night.
- Weekday evening in The John O Gaunt
New Item: The policemen came in two by two, hurrah! Hurrah!
- Friday evening at Pizza Margherita
New Item: It's all a bit bright and cafeteria-like. The first thing the wife says, after sitting down at the table is, 'Lancaster needs some posh restaurants.'
- The Golden Lion at 6.30pm
New Item: 'The only good cat's a dead cat.' Were the words that met me as I entered the Golden Lion at 6.30pm on Saturday.
- Three Mariners at 4pm
New Item: I have a lot of memories about the Three Mariners, all over eight years old - drinking with girlfriends inside, being far too wasted to enter and sitting outside, scared to go in.
- The Bobbin on Saturday at 6pm
New Item: This doesn't feel much like a student pub anymore, which it always used to be, years ago. I knew it back then as The Priory, and it had sticky carpets which everyone would sit on when it got busy. It never struck me as odd to sit on the floor in a pub back then, which, sadly, it does now.
