      Did you used to drink in Galvins? That has to be my most favourite pub in the entire world.

        Yes, frequently. Other regular haunts were the Lass O'Gowrie, The Beer House, The Marble Arch and The Ducie Arms. All fine boozers indeed.

          Ah I dont recognise any of the others.

          I lived in Manchester for 18 months..I left about a year ago I think. I loved it - the pubs were fantastic. I had an apartment in the Hacienda, which was excellently placed opposite City Road (Kareoke on a friday)
          And just round the corner from the Brittains Protecterate, and Galvins. I pretty much lived in Galvins!
          I loved the Nags Head aswell - hot pies are the future!

              Were any of them house-trained?

                Ah well, I left <cough-cough> years ago and can remember when Galvins was the Crown Inn, so things may very well have changed a lot. When I lived there the Hacienda was a night club and, yes, I was that tosser dancing on the podium during the infamous episode of "The Hit Man and Her".

                    My ex 'next door neighbour but one' is from Sunderland. Mrs EO (who, in her defence is a Yank) thinks his accent's (in her words) sexy. I keep trying to explain to her that you're all crims, but she's having none of it.

                      Mrs EO clearly has exceptional taste!
