Going into a pub for 5 cokes and a coffee, you deserve to get fucked over

 

Bet the pub made more profit from that than if they'd sold 5 pints. Especially if the colas came from the post-mix tap. Pennies to make, pounds to drink.

It was late, the cafe at Rivington had closed. Don't judge me!

 

 

My guess is that you went into The Crown.

 

If you're judging Horwich by its pub clientele, it's a bit like like judging Islam by going for a KFC with the Taliban.

The best bits of the egyptology collection went on a tour of the far east. It's apparently the best permanent collection in the country outside London.

Last time i nipped in the museum there were a load of old Bolton shirts hanging up in a case that used to have a mummy in it!

Maloneys was inbetween Life and J2, in the top corner of Nelson Square.

 

Nelson Square was thriving for a year or two. Mind you, Bank Street was too a few years before that with Hero's and Liberty's.

 

Happy times when I was in my prime.

Maloneys; didn't serve pints and you waited to be served whilst some tosser bar man pretended to be Tom Cruise in Cocktail throwing bottles around. Not real bottles mind but wooden pretend ones.

 

Overall not a great loss to the Bolton drinking scene.

 

 

keg or cask?

Seem to remember (vaguely) a place around Bank Street possibly, in the late 90s there was a place you paid about a tenner or so to get in and as long as you took your empty back you got a free replacement

 

I used to think I was more savvy than most who would drink watered down pints as I went for bottles of Stella

 

Name escapes me though
