Youri McAnespie Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Off topic, but I remember when that Bar Babylon opened in his old gaff, first time we went in, there was a DJ on playing downtempo house midweek and a bottle bar upstairs - genuinely thought this was the start of Bolton having something as an alternative to Manchester...ha! Last time I saw Supa John was in Home Bargains, ironically, more or less exactly where his happy hunting ground was...I'll bet he can sup with the best of 'em still.

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted June 17, 2014 Site Supporter Share Posted June 17, 2014 So, is the flea pit going to be a decent boozer again then or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonk Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Not according to the orchid website. http://www.pub-explorer.com/themedpubs/orchid.htm Jsl I stand corrected. Damian was the manager at the Beehive, fucked off to Garstang, then ended back at the 3 pigons - I din't realise he jumped company as well. He's now left there too (out of the trade) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Winchester White Posted June 18, 2014 Site Supporter Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thought I would pop in on way home to watch a bit of the Spain game. Pulled onto car park and saw the back gate shut but could hear voices and laughing so figured it had blown shut. Went into back yard to be faced with SJM and his sons sorting stuff out. Turns out it was indeed shut, haha! He said it would be open again tomorrow for the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
