a little bit of useless trivia related to working on this job, The Stone mason not bricklayer on this job, had a few of us help him on place he was fixing up as a jazz club in Liverpool, turned out to become a place well known, that old banana warehouse cellar became The Cavern
Love the way snippets of info on here tie up .
Great bit of info to be able to tell your grandkids!
In the late 1960s the Railway had a landlord who was too found of the sauce and who, after an epic drinking session, appeared behind the lounge bar wearing only his vest and underpants and suffering from a severe case of intestinal hurry. His wife berated him and told him to return upstairs to which he responded by removing his underpants and flinging them across the lounge where they attached themselves to the light fitting. As he, his wife, the bar staff and the cleaner all refused to remove them, the undies became an unusual conversation piece until a smartly dressed gentleman from Higsons Brewery appeared and much to the amusement of the clientele, stood on a stool and removed the offending garment with a pair of tongs. He then placed them into a plastic bag and left.
