Publican was an ex merchant seaman called Jim. The next
one was called George Moody another merchant seaman a steward.His wife
was called Netta she was Dutch. When you walked into the pub it was like
walking into the front room of a house. There was a 'back room' and the
toilets were outside in the yard.It was always full as it was situated
close to docklands and lots of industry. Sanderson's paint works and
Smith & Nephews and fish houses. |

I was a student at the school of architecture in Strand
Close, a converted Victorian Board school, but lived in a Hessle Road
shamfour. Nice pint of Mild in the Neptune. The Landlord had a brass
contraption like a mini Trombone, which he 'played' then handed it to me
to play...of course it was a trick I discovered, to the assembled amused
regulars, as it sprayed me with talc as I blew. Happy days! Lovely
friendly spot and good beer. |
