Not first pint, but first pint of bitter. When I worked on the factory bottom, one lunchtime on a Saturday, when we were doing a bit of overtime, one of the tacklers from WF Chambers bought me my first pint of bitter in the Woodnook Inn? - at the corner of Marsden Street and Carter Street - which was a Thwaites pub if I remember rightly. I never really went back to drinking tea after that.
