my pub has been taken over
its my local pub and its literally a 1 minute walk from where I live, its got a bad reputation which stops people coming in (it works in our favor cuz everyone in there knows each other and strangers are more than welcome but the trouble makers don't normally come in), its an orrible old pub but the atmosphere is always cracking in there, there has been no problem in there for at least 3 years and we always have a good crack on a Friday night.
last week a load of...I don't know what you call them, chavs? scally's came in, all late 20's early 30's and as soon as they walked in you could feel the atmosphere change, they were looking for a scrap.
tonight I go in there and see a kid I haven't seen in years and I know he is a prick of the highest order, 20 minutes after him all of his mates come in, 20 minutes after they come in a fight nearly breaks out.
nothing actually happened but I wont be going in there for a few weeks, you know they are only in there because they have been kicked out of every other pub in the area.
feel pretty shit now, that was like my safe haven but now I think I would rather avoid them types and stay away from them rather than stay around until it kicks off.
any way I am sitting down now watching quatermass and the pit with a can of stella waiting for my meal to be delivered
