they were all old haunts of mine at one time,as well as many others have mentioned, the landlady of the welcome inn, used to see us 8-30 in morning in town centre, all in "Tech Attire" say good morning,smile, then serve us at dinner (without the uniforms)

Re: Pubs that are no more

There once was a time when ONLY PUBS could sell alcohol.
I recall passing the door of The Heys Inn in my childhood and a 'selling out' hatch was visible in the vestibule entrance.
The demise of public houses began when supermarkets started selling it, and the smoking ban was the last straw.
