RE: Greyhound down worsbrough - my spiritual home and Wuzbrer lived near there. I'm not current. I pop in every two years. Its a time-warp.... nothing changes
Lol, you no John Holden? and budgie and all the goshy family then johns my uncle and i no the others threw him
Proper drinker's pub, Dave Mcdevitt the landlord top bloke, as for Budgie he's an old mate of mine, John Holden and his brother Al mates of mine also. Anybody seen owt et Brigger's.
Couldnt think of the landlords name mi uncle john what a bloke could drink for england and still not put any weight on, typical barnsley man threw n threw n budgie hes just a laugh, the ugly competition is on every time i go in
RE: Couldnt think of the landlords name As I say, a proper pub perhaps one of the last in Barnsley where conversation and dry Barnsley wit is'nt drowned out by crap music, this and the fact that the beer is excellent makes it a must visit for all those tourists visiting this stunning part of Yorkshire. (Tongue firmly in cheek at this point.)
If you dont like people taking the piss out of you dont go in, its impossible to go in with out abuse, but all friendly lads who go in just love a joke with each other
RE: If you dont like people taking the piss out of you Went on a race trip with all the Greyhound, Darley & Pilley boys last year. McDevitt and the Darley landlord in tow. Reight laugh! Pete Baraclough is still the funniest guy from 'Brig. Dry wit abound. Know loads from down there.
So did any of you go on mi uncles 50th birthday doo to magaluf and get caught up in the scuffle with the police?
RE: So did any of you go on mi uncles 50th birthday doo No mate... only see them very occasionally. Races normally but now and again see them at the match in the locals.
Never really appealed to me to be honest..... Having said that i did frequent the place in the early 80's and knew Malc Robinson (no longer with us sadly). I frequented the Mason's Arms a bit more and also the Elm Tree on occasions. Not to mention the 'Pod'.... The 'Goshy' family are well known in the village.
Well,Jaffa, thanks for reminding me of the 1970,s when i brought my young Whipppet to W/Dale.. nice to know they are still enjoying that sport
yes, Jaffa, i no all them boys..... though i don't know johnny gosh so well. i saw John Holden in there a year ago... and it was like, where's the last thirty years gone? In another time, my grandad used to take his vegetables into the Greyhound and give them away. He'd get a few pints, later, off all the people who took the food. reight village, t'dale
Yep more than likely dont think there is anyone in the greyhound who doesnt smoke, anyone go in the dalesman n all
Dalesman..... Is no more.... Apparently Seth Armstrong used to tinkle the ivories in there many moons ago?
