Yeah that’s where I went. He used to let me off not wearing uniform after my dad left home and my mom was skint, called me in his office one day to bollock me for wearing jeans, sweater and para boots, I just mentioned Motörhead and he fucking loved me.
He was alright really, just one of those really little people who tried to make up for being small by being an angry cunt.

That's a shame, iconic place a few miles from my birthplace and loved by locals.

I guess the new buyer didn't get the change of use permission...

 

[Tredman]

Truly amazing how many times that happens.

 

[Loki]

Hhmm.
