I had an honest face I suppose...The only problem was that once you got to know the patrons...they were always asking for a free drink...one day Tom called a meeting of all the staff because the bar was haemorrhaging pints and asked who was giving away free pints? I owned up and thought that I would be fired on the spot, but he gave me another chance. Good man, very kind to me. I think he must have been in his late 40s early 50s at that time...short dark hair and spectacles...if he is still with us, tell him Chris Kavanagh has never forgotten him and his good nature. Best boss I ever worked for. God bless him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5618089051639368879.post-60060931835830849672019-10-25T22:25:09.209+01:002019-10-25T22:25:09.209+01:00Tom and Betty?

I used to work behind the bar...Wub a lub a dub dub<br /><br />I used to work behind the bar circa 1993-94 before I went to university...I think it was this experience that damaged my hearing...seem to remember Clive on the door (several bouncers) and Gary the ents manager. Tom was the boss...DJ's booth was above the bar, accessed by a ladder. Great music, great times. Chris Kavanagh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
