The local beer (Mary Anne) was truly awful……….the imported Dutch and Belgian lager was just as cheap though luckily. Main haunts for us were the Bond, The Lamplighter, No 10s and if we were feeling a bit adult we went to Lidos. Weekend late nights usually in the Warehouse, Thackerays or Madisons followed by hungover football on Sunday morningI was Midland and yes that was my life too. When I 1st moved it was 65p a pint at The Pierson or The Exeter
