Ah well you would have seen my old house then. I left when I was 10, but used to go with my Dad to the Police Club & the RA (Royal Artillery) Club (we were usually the only white folk in the RA Club).
Was in the Robin Hood last year - but did most drinking in the Docksiders - they had all the football on.
Went back to the RA last year, walked in & got looked at - fat bald REALLY white tourists don't end up in there often. Got a beer ($4), then commented that it hadn't changed much & that the monkey cage (they used to havce a cage for the pet monkey one of the regulars bought in with him) was gone.
When I told them who I was another beer appeared "Sorry man, I should have charged you local rates"
. In the end up I'd to almost do a runner - before I wasn't fit to leave. Rum & Heinekin - one round every 10 minutes, and guys sneaking out to call people I'd went to school with or who knew my folks - I kinda think I should have stayed - I'd have found a place to stay.
