Alan (PS040) |
[588] Well that's what, what I said on Saturday |
Barry (PS03W) |

Mark (PS042) |
[859] Erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[860] what do they do a bus shuttle? |

[862] It's a long haul that innit though? |
Mark (PS042) |

[868] Must be a fair number. |
Mark (PS042) |
[869] I've no idea to be honest. [870] There's not as many as there used to be. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[871] No. [872] No, no, no. [873] I mean we ... when I ... when I came here ... it was virtually, virtually half, half the population of that. [874] And then there was ... maybe a thousand people out of out of Morecambe. |
Mark (PS042) |
[875] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[876] That's it. [877] And the Uni was then only about two thousand eight hundred strong. |
Mark (PS042) |
[878] Mm. [879] But there's quite a lot of erm ... development in Lancaster now. [880] They're doing loads of ... erm, flats and there's all those, all that stuff round [...] ... Highcross area. |

Mark (PS042) |
[884] I think so, but ... well that's part of St. Martin's College really, isn't it that er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[885] Some of it is. [886] I thought some of it was the Uni. [887] But, you know, I mean, if the Uni goes to ten thousand in ... what ... what is it, it's getting up for about ninety five, ninety six? [888] It's quite quick. |
Mark (PS042) |
[889] Something like that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[890] It's |
Mark (PS042) |
[891] Yeah. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[1342] Well I was just talking to Jean about that today, I mean I ... we've gotta keep on doing it but, I think that |
Ken (PS043) |
[1343] Yeah, if you stop now you'll get nowhere with them will you? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1344] No that's right. [1345] But I mean I think we, I think I, I will need on Monday morning to talk to ... er Morecambe Bay ... and see if I can bring forward these promotions because |
Ken (PS043) |
[1346] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1347] until I start |
Ken (PS043) |
[1348] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1349] I mean, we should get them back. |
Ken (PS043) |
[1350] You can't,al also I think you should start doing, having people regular again wi it's just |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1351] I know. |
Ken (PS043) |
[1352] not worth it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1353] The trouble is it's a bit of a catch twenty two because ... [sigh] ... if you don't put a bus on, will you get the people? |
Ken (PS043) |
[1354] Mm. [1355] It's what you do innit? [1356] That's the problem with it. [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[1359] and nobody on it. |
Ken (PS043) |
[1360] nobody's actually said to me a ... well where, where's the bus on a Thursday? [1361] Nobody's said it yet. [1362] When they |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1363] Mm mm. |
Ken (PS043) |
[1364] start asking |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1365] Mm. |
Ken (PS043) |
[1366] then that transport you could ask about putting it back on again. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1367] I mean what a what I think I'll probably do is if we can get like erm ... something that's obviously ... our crowd and then ... either ... putting, say, Stella back on or something like that |
Ken (PS043) |
[1368] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |

[1697] No! |
Alan (PS040) |
[1698] Well isn't it? |
Ken (PS043) |
[1699] Well I did [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1700] The guy was talking to Pete, he thought he could, he develop, he could develop for coarse fishing |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[1701] Bye bye. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1702] er, you know river fishing and that as well, there's spa special camera. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1703] Well where does the actual camera hang off? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1704] It's hung, it it's hung,i i it's actually not below the boat but, but it |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[1705] Oh! [1706] Sure can. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1707] get it, you see, but i it's ... fantastic watching cos ... you know they were ... they, they ... it was sort of going along the |
Alan (PS040) |
[1708] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1709] whatever they were using as bait ... presumably some mackerel or something like that but, but as I was saying you could see it trailing through ... and then all, suddenly out of like nowhere this fish would come and like ... chase after it |
Alan (PS040) |
[1710] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1711] and snap and this, this would go off and you'd be sat there going right then, you actually |
Alan (PS040) |
[1712] Well presumably |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1713] see it take it, you know |
Alan (PS040) |
[1714] the camera eye would be adjustable would it? [1715] Or |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1716] I presume so, yes. [1717] I mean they was talking about getting a really small for erm |
Alan (PS040) |
[1718] Oh right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1719] you know, to be, to be used in ... in sort of coarse fishing and that. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1720] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1721] But, of course, the other thing of course ,i it takes out the, the one that got away cos you actually see the one [laughing] that got away |
Alan (PS040) |
[1722] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1723] you know [] ? |
Alan (PS040) |
[1724] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1725] There'd ... be some story then. [laugh] |
Alan (PS040) |
[1726] You know what'll happen is ... your camera would |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Alan (PS040) |
[1727] the cameras'll magnify it anyway won't it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1728] Yeah it will. [1729] It will do. [1730] Yeah. [1731] Yeah. [1732] But it was really, I mean it, it meant of course that ... the other people on the boat could have some enjoyment as well, cos I mean, there's nothing worse i if you ... if there's only one rod out, or two rods out th those boats there's only like a couple of rods out int there on, on |
Alan (PS040) |
[1733] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1734] those ... for the marlin and the ... and the sharks and that, fishing? |
Alan (PS040) |
[1735] And you don't get many. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1736] Yeah. [1737] And it's not like, sort of |
Alan (PS040) |
[1738] Three ... there'll be |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1739] twelve |
Alan (PS040) |
[1740] three or four maximum |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1741] twelve rods out, yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1742] something like that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1743] Yeah. [1744] So any anybody else that's going on board is bored out their brains basically! [1745] But at least |
Alan (PS040) |
[1746] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1747] if you got T V monitors you can watch what's going |
Alan (PS040) |
[1748] Watch it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1749] on. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1750] That's really good. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1751] So now, now I mean ... now with all the radar and ... whatever else we're using, I mean ... you should really be able to find fish. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1752] Well that, that boat from Evesham that we went out on a couple a years ago it had a fish finder on it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1753] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1754] So ... it er, [...] fish finder on it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1755] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1756] You throw your line out, you don't get a few just biting. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1757] No. [1758] No, that's right. [1759] That's right. [1760] They've done ... most of them are ... I mean the wo certainly the ones on the little ... little boat trips and that, I mean, they have ... all it does is that ... it'll tell you there's some fish about, I mean, it doesn't |
Alan (PS040) |
[1761] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1762] tell you where to fish or |
Alan (PS040) |
[1763] Oh no. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1764] depths or anything like that does it? [1765] What they're doing is ... there's some fish down there somewhere. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1766] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1767] Cos that's the most frustrating thing about fishing is when you're like ... you know, you could be wasting that, you, you think to yourself like I could be wasting a whole, there's not a fish anywhere round here! [1768] [laughing] You know, you could be sat here like an idiot today |
Alan (PS040) |
[1769] Well that's it I've I've sat on |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1770] for hours on end [] . |
Alan (PS040) |
[1771] Jay hours on end in middle of night freezing |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1772] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1773] you know like [...] ... and I've caught nothing. [1774] And you've |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1775] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1776] thought well ... there's plenty of crabs ... in |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1777] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1778] summer, take your bait |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1779] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1780] but every time you throw out ... there's a crab on end of it. [1781] You know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1782] Yeah. [1783] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1784] you think, why does that crab always have to come my line. |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Alan (PS040) |
[1785] And all this sea yet it has to get my worm. [1786] And same, like no fish, you think well there must be fish out there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1787] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1788] Well it's, it's luck innit? [1789] I don't know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1790] I don't know what's going on. [1791] I don't ... we got about three, three thirty in the morning, both of them went out to er ... canal somewhere up ... Dulgate, past Dulgate ... we set up and we'd ... we'd been fishing for about two and half hours it's aba ... about six thirty in the morning this old farmer comes up says er ... aye, aye lads, he said er ... I wouldn't bother it, they drained this area of the canal a few [laughing] months ago! [1792] And we said, oh [] ! |
Alan (PS040) |
[1793] Yeah. [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1794] [laugh] ... [laughing] Sat there watching our floats for hours [] ! [1795] I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[1796] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1797] I mean luckily you, you know, you'd gone on a car, with a car so it's a matter of throwing everything in the back and just going |
Alan (PS040) |
[1798] That's it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1799] somewhere else so ... could have sat there all bleeding day! [1800] And not have known anything about it. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1801] Aye. [1802] I've had some lonely nights. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1803] Yeah. [1804] Do you catch many eels, eels or anything, many eels? |
Alan (PS040) |
[1805] No. |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Alan (PS040) |
[1806] Didn't catch as many this year ... as what I have done. [1807] ... Phworgh! [1808] The slimy things that they are. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1809] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1810] You get one of the lads that works with me, if he catches three of them he says well ... I'll have them for my dinner. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1811] Yeah. [1812] I know. [1813] I know. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1814] They look horrible! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1815] A delicacy. [1816] Mind you, I ate conga. [1817] I, I erm, I was off the west co er ... on a holiday to the west coast of Ireland and we erm ... we're driving down the west coast and there was like some rocks and everything about, so we stopped and, you know, I looked [...] by a rock pools or something, and there's this ... and the rock pool is like mini-swimming baths, they were, you know, probably |
Alan (PS040) |
[1818] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1819] twelve foot long and about six or seven foot wide and about |
Alan (PS040) |
[1820] Mm mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1821] six or seven foot deep and they're crystal clear. [1822] And there was this old guy dragging this bloody rope with a massive ... hook on the end ... like after ... after, you know, I presume it was cod or mackerel something along the ... and I said, what the hell are you fishing? [1823] You know cos ... the woman I was with wanted to go for a swim and I said no you can't this guy [...] , so I went up to him, I said what, what on earth are you fishing for? [1824] He said, oh there's three congas live in this pool. [1825] It was like ... a four foot one, a five foot one, there's a six foot one over in the centre, there's a rock in the centre of it |
Alan (PS040) |
[1826] Oh right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1827] that came out the water ... said look over there. [1828] I said bloody hell! [1829] You know, and I said to her you were [laughing] gonna go swimming in there [] ! [1830] He said ooh, he said ... there was some American students here last week and they were all swimming in there and the ... man came along with this thing and they bo they were all sat on the middle lo middle of there with their feet dangling in the water splashing away, he said ... I was dragging this down and this six footer came out, [laughing] I said, and then they were ... he said, you've never seen anybody run so fast in your life like they go |
Alan (PS040) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1831] they were dangling their toes at the end of this thing [] . [1832] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1833] Yeah. [1834] Oh aye. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1835] And then, the next day I went along and he actually caught ... the five foot one ... and ki and killed it and he gave us a load of steaks off it that I sort of |
Alan (PS040) |
[1836] Baked? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1837] Yeah. [1838] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1839] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1840] The trouble was they were really bony, that's the only thing it was ... and I don't like eating |
Alan (PS040) |
[1841] Well |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1842] fish and bo with bones in I can't stand it. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1843] well you can't fillet them can you? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1844] No. [1845] No. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1846] Impossible. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1847] Impossible. [1848] No. [1849] Cos it's like a central spinal |
Alan (PS040) |
[1850] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1851] and it's all off it so ... you'd be ... just ... you know, it's not like |
Alan (PS040) |
[1852] Normal flat |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1853] a fish, a flat fish. [1854] I mean, but it was really nice it was ... it was a really chewy meat you know. [1855] But |
Alan (PS040) |
[1856] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1857] like shark or something and er |

This guy was great though we met in Ireland cos he was erm ... he used to ... own about three or four ... supermarkets, er small chains and he just one day, he's about ... he's about fifty eight, sixty now ... and one day he said about five years ago he just got fed up and just walked out. [1881] All he does is fish all day long. [1882] And he |
Alan (PS040) |
[1883] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1884] just, he lives in somebody's basement of a house, and like, in return for living there ... he fills the guy's freezer up with ... lobster, crab, you know |
Alan (PS040) |
[1885] Mm mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1886] fish and that ... and erm ... everything he does in the village i in Kilrush is ... everything, he just ... you know, he wants a new pair of shoes, wants a coat ... brings |
Alan (PS040) |
[1887] Yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |

[1973] And er ... I mean, things like squid and that I ca I quite like, but I'd never think of get buying it, I wouldn't ... buy it and cook it myself or anything. [1974] I just |
Alan (PS040) |
[1975] Oh no. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1976] the trouble is, once you actually |
Alan (PS040) |
[1977] Tried that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1978] so what sorry? [1979] I remember once, you know, getting and cutting ... a rabbit and things, by the time you'd actually cut the thi damn thing |
Alan (PS040) |
[1980] You've gone off it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1981] you'd gone off it cos you'd been ... heading, and gutting it, and [laughing] whatever else [] ! [1982] And you know, you're sat there and you think |
Alan (PS040) |
[1983] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1984] I don't [laughing] really wanna eat this, you know [] ! [1985] It's alright if it comes to you in a ca in a, in a, as a, as a meal |

Barry (PS03W) |
[1990] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1991] er, the lads said what are we having the starters like? [1992] I said, oh ... I'll have what you're ordering. [1993] Well they ordered soup of the day you see ... and they brought this, I tasted it ... had a real funny, a weird taste |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1994] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[1995] anyway, and I sort of said to the waitress, why what was it? [1996] She said octopus. [1997] Urgh! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[1998] [laugh] ... You wouldn't have had it if you'd have known? |
Alan (PS040) |
[1999] No. [2000] I don't think I would. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[2001] No. |
Alan (PS040) |
[2002] It's not something |
Barry (PS03W) |
[2003] No. |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[2005] No. [2006] I wouldn't. [2007] I certainly |
Alan (PS040) |
[2008] Well |

Alan (PS040) |
[2010] it was ... it were |
Barry (PS03W) |
[2011] I mean I like fish but I wouldn't, I wouldn't choose it. |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[2013] Yeah. [2014] What was it, a sort of fishy ta I mean was it a sort of fishy soup? |
Alan (PS040) |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[2469] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[2470] student night, having a lot of staff on, it's pointless having ... ah, I mean, the bouncers ... in that situation. |

[3029] Phenomenal amount of wasted space. |
Barry (PS03W) |

[3031] I used to think what [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3032] Where does this lead to? |

Barry (PS03W) |
[3045] [laugh] ... And these are [...] . |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3046] [laughing] Yeah [] . [3047] ... I mean we have ... on a couple of occasions always done like fortieths and that, on a ... couple of them. [3048] We actually set up ... buffet in there |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3049] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3050] which worked ... reasonably well. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3051] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3052] I think one did it, you know what I mean |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3053] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3054] tart it up and whatever. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3055] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3056] Erm, and what else worked well ... erm ... for a while, we were doing the women's darts. [3057] And we had ... about three boards in here and we had a board in there. [3058] I mean, there must be about seven boards in all. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3059] Right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3060] Was that a competition was it? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3061] No, it was a weekly ... thing. [3062] Because, what they were doing, they were going to individual pubs |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3063] Oh yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3064] Which couldn't cope |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3065] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3066] with it, and th wha on their knock-outs and their cups and everything they |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3067] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3068] wanted them all in one place. [3069] So |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3070] Aha |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3071] but erm ... there was a bit of jealousy in the la licensees started getting a bit er ... er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3072] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3073] because we're taking the trade away from them, you know ... they would have obviously had |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3074] They were all the other pubs and the darts [...] ? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3075] Yeah. [3076] They'd have had a lot [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3077] A bit of competition from other place. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3078] Well, at that stage we were talking to ... the men's darts secretary came along and was saying, he'd be quite interested in, in ... knocking up, you know, one of the Lancashire matches or something |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3079] Oh! |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3080] like that. [3081] It's a |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3082] Well it's the stage for it int it? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3083] Th thing is, you can put it on there, put it on sta you can er film it, and bang it on the big screen over there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3084] Mhm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3085] which is what I, I, in the [...] I had Eric Bristow and Maureen one night, and, I mean, it was just little dart board in the corner, but what I did was, I had a big screen like that ... and I just got ... student television service just to film it live and just throw it straight back up onto the big |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3086] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3087] onto the thing, so ... you know, it was like ... well it's better than being at the telly. [3088] I mean, it's better |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3089] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3090] than |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3091] Watching that. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3092] because th on the telly they haven't got those. [3093] I mean, I'm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3094] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3095] amazed at the, on the world championships, they've only got those ... lighting up boards |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3096] That's right. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3097] haven't they? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3098] That's right, yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3099] You know, and, I, instead of having ... I mean |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3100] Screen up. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3101] why they don't just put a screen up |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3102] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3103] that beats me, you know. [3104] They do other sport etcetera. [3105] See what I mean? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3106] Mm. [3107] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3108] Well that's part of the course because, we need to sort, with Johnny's entertainment out with a roof. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3109] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3110] Alright. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3111] They've got two or three |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3112] little leaks. [3113] What it is is, the ventilation ... on the roof, ventilation shafts ... when the wind's driven ... it drives under and leaks through. [3114] And we get it in two or three places, the toilets are, are the key one. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3115] And you don't see [...] with that. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3116] Roof tiles are a fu ... bloody cost a fortune! [3117] ... Yeah, so ... damn! [3118] I didn't bring the ... I'll, I'll go and ... I'll go and get the key for that. [3119] No, I'll let you see it, may as well while you're here. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[3181] Well |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3182] I mean, if you wanted you can use the big screen. [3183] You see cos, we put it that position cos er, the only dead part of the club is just ... literally |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3184] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3185] in the corner. [3186] O the other way you can see the screen from everywhere. [3187] Erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3188] I mean, how much do you reckon it'll cost? [3189] If we said ou the carpet, we said well a certain area of the carpet wants [...] |
Barry (PS03W) | [sigh] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3190] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3191] Erm |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3192] I mean, it's quite a big floor area ... when you look at it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3193] How much did you say |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3194] Yeah, probably. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3195] in all your nightclubs and, what did you say they do a [...] ? [3196] We'll ... nothing, we'll, won't be able to paint the floor and put the carpets down on |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3197] I mean I |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3198] that floor. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3199] I would have thought ... to be honest, I would have thought you don't need any of that area |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3200] No. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3201] carpeted. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3202] Just to, probably, very ends of [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3203] Don't you, you want your raised area, this |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3204] You want your two raised areas carpeted. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3205] Er, by, by the bar would you say it ... no not right in front |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3206] you know, have that |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3207] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3208] running to about three foot back. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3209] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3210] Yeah that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3211] Well |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3212] but you don't really want it up to the bar if you're going to get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3213] No I'm saying that |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3214] you go right up to the bar |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3215] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3216] you want it up to |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3217] See if you put artists on ... and you have this area as ... some kind of ... without carpet on |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3218] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3219] in some ways, you haven't put, you can actually be, you know, dancing on this area. [3220] I mean,tha that's the problem we got at the moment. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3221] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3222] On Mary's do, what we did, I put [...] soul machine over here where the screen was |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3223] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3224] so people could dance on the er ... on the actual dance floor if they wanted. [3225] Erm ... I mean, it's not ideal but it really, it worked. [3226] It wor even, providing you haven't got a lot of ... if you've only got about a hundred people it's not too bad that cos it, it ... also creates a bit more atmosphere. [3227] But, it's a better ... i it's not a ... bad designed place in a sense that, that ... I mean, it's a reasonable size room |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3228] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3229] and you ca and three hundred people er, you can take three hundred quite |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3230] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3231] easily ... I mean, you know, we've had four, fives ... hundred in. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3232] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3233] You can take three hundred quite easily. [3234] But ... the erm ... the other thing about it is if you have a hundred people in ... it can be so also be a good atmosphere, you know? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3235] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3236] Yet,i it's not one of those rooms where, if |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3237] No. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3238] you only get a hu yo you're struggling if you've only a got a hundred. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3239] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3240] Erm, what I'm, I've just arranged somebody to redo our speaker syste our original system with tannoys, we blew our tannoys ... speakers, and ... I didn't bother getting them replaced because we were going for a rock crowd ... so we just used Bernie and Nigel |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3241] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3242] P A there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3243] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3244] What I've got, is I've got four of these directional speakers, there's two up and two on here ... and then two big bass ones which sit on a floor back there. [3245] And, so it's very loud on the dance floor but you can actually talk out, out here. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3246] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3247] Which I thought we need to redo if we're gonna get private bookings. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3248] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3249] Cos the one thing you always get when you've got a mixture of people, I mean, all thi this needs recovering basically as well. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3250] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3251] But I mean, that's not a big job it's just |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3252] No. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3253] re relinoing it basically. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3254] Oh yeah. [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3255] Oh yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3256] [...] ... Filling the smoke |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3257] Smoke machine |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3258] up. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3259] Yeah, you got a smoke machine ... we, we, we would set in little, in a hole in the back. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3260] And all of these air conditioning valves are on? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3261] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3262] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3263] Actually I'm having the,a th I mean I can get, I'm getting our system back in operation. [3264] It, it was gonna cost me a thousand but I've done a deal with a guy who'd got stuck with some in Manchester so it's gonna cost me five hundred which I'm getting done this Friday. [3265] Erm ... to put a satellite ... system, to put a satellite in would be three hundred quid in total. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3266] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3267] So ... I mean it's ... that's only one ... that's only one good'un, good night using it innit, a year? [3268] Pays for that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3269] Yo you're light, the er ceiling ... could you not get away with covering the, get the lights a colour blue? [3270] And er ... and ... you know, tidying up ceiling obviously [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3271] Right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3272] I mean, there's lots of bits and pieces you need for ... a |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3273] I mean, if you just ... cover all the areas that were really |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3274] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3275] bad, er ... I reckon, I says, well what do you think ... yourself in, in, in |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3276] Well the, the big ... the single biggest cost is, is what we do with this ... a carpet area. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3277] Mm. [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3278] That's our single biggest cost, cos ... as I say, I had three quotes in total, and they were all sort of between thirteen and twenty three. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3279] Yeah. [3280] Thousand. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3281] Yeah. [3282] But that's, having said that, that's to carpet all this area |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3283] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3284] that back area I've just taken you through, that, the staircase, and the corridors out there. [3285] I mean, that's the carpet ev I just said like ... I wanted a quote to carpet |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3286] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3287] everywhere. [3288] Erm ... what we were doing is,i what it was for, was for, for prospective buyers, they wanted erm ... a justification for |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3289] Yeah. [3290] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3291] the money they were gonna spend. [3292] I mean, they wouldn't have spent that money. [3293] But, they wanted ... written quotes for ... a justification more or less. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3294] Do you think it's better being like this? [3295] Looking there, or is it better sort of, clearing your floor and get a wider dancing space and |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3296] Well it's quite, it's a reasonable size |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3297] I know it's a fair size, but [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3298] It's a fair size dancing |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3299] you know |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3300] space actually, I mean, you get about a hundred people on here, it's, it's, it's alright. [3301] In fact the, in fact it's,i at times it's too big. [3302] That's, my one, I don't know how you'd ever get over it, but that's my one ... criticism of the thing is that sometimes when you walk in ... it's the first thing that hits you and unless people are dancing ... it creates a cold atmosphere. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3303] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3474] get damaged, I mean, you just have to keep ... bloody working on them, I |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[3479] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3480] This is the problem, er,le |
Barry (PS03W) |

[3792] we'll be getting on top |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3793] Alright. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3794] then, you know. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3795] Okay. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3796] We're usually done by five, you know, so there's |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3797] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3798] no problem |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3799] Make [...] ... by five |

[3803] Five o'clock. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3806] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3807] Er |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3808] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3809] some paper ... them toilets ... cos er, I'm, you know, I say, from our ... our, both side is ... something that's er ... I mean, everybody's looking purely from [...] and return sales. [3810] All you're looking at is for an income [...] , an income from it ... and er ... I reckon ... can do very well. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3811] What do you, what you think of that bar area Barry? [3812] Do you think it could be inclined to be |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3813] Er, the top one? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3814] as a drinking area |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3815] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3816] U yeah, I mean I |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3817] during the day? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3818] yeah, well it was ... it was what I wanted to, it was what I wanted to, it was wanted to do initially, I mean, but then you have like ... so many ideas ... that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3819] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3820] you know, you can't do them all in that sense, but if you had somebody ... somebody like Colin might be able to |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3821] Cos you only need, you only need ... him to drag ... sort of ... fifteen, twenty people in initially |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3822] And five, ten of them |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3823] And they'll all, they'll all be drinkers. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3824] Yeah. [3825] But I mean ... sa ta so there's an at little atmosphere there anyway |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3826] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3827] erm ... and then you can, I mean, well it gives you the opportunity to, you know ... bang in a bloody jazz band or whatever you wanna do in there somewhere |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3828] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3829] and, and build it up like that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3830] As you said, they haven't actually, you know, it'd be ... if you could get some sort of portable |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3831] Screening. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3832] screen that'd just shut it off. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3833] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3834] So people don't feel as though they're sat in a wide ai wide open |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3835] No, I know, yeah. [3836] Yeah, that's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3837] you know. [3838] Erm |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3839] Well you ca you ca you can get that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3840] You can get, you can do something |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3841] But, yeah |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3842] can't you? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3843] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3844] Like you say, if you get your satellite T V in there |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3845] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3846] you know, you can |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3847] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3848] just make it a cosy little bar where you can |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3849] Yeah. [3850] That's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3851] It won't cost any to give it a go would it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3852] No. [3853] If Colin's ... if Colin's up for it, it wouldn't at all. [3854] I mean, it needs to perhaps ... perhaps they can do something for the first couple |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3855] Oh yeah, need some sort of er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3856] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3857] idea to get it going and get it off the ground even if you ... you put your beer on at, well I just thought of couple [...] Boddingtons put their ... they're ... they're gonna put their, they're gonna put there's at a pound a pint. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3858] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3859] You know, just to attract some people, you know, approach the brewery, say look what about a few keg? [3860] And if you get ... two or three keg ... put that money into free stock you know. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3861] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3862] Say you [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3863] Cleaner's not, the cleaner's not done behind here yet. |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3864] If you open it up, if you do get it open, and advertise it at Boddingtons a pound a pint, get them straight ... to come in. [3865] You're not making a fortune at first, but once you get it going |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3866] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3867] You said about traditional |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3868] The only other thing is the [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3869] Depends where your money is really. |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3870] Whe whe where's your cellar? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3871] Right underneath. [3872] Right at the bottom. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3873] Yeah, but if, if you |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3874] How big's your fire exit, entrance? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3875] [...] ... the fire exit [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3876] You could put it behind, you could feed it through the wall behind to where that |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3877] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3878] spacious room is where all your chairs are couldn't you? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |

Barry (PS03W) | [...] |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3888] It's fucking ridiculous! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3889] Erm ... cos you'd tell the brewery wouldn't you? |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3890] The only other thing to do is, is do what er ... er, we did at one time and just get a ... bright beer and open it up and ... er, and then pull it. [3891] And have it. |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3892] I know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3893] Now there's a thought. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3894] It er, you'd have problem with er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3895] But would you? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[3939] Right. [3940] Right. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3941] Now, I don't know if it's worth asking |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3942] Well I could |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3943] council to, if you could like lump it with the next year 's. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3944] El e Elliel, Elliel said that er they could probably ... twist the council's arm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3945] What's that for Barry? |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3946] Well, this, you know we're on about this money |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[3949] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3950] I don't know if I've got them here. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3951] How much is that for? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3952] Well it was er ... it was about |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3953] Twenty two. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3954] here we are, that's it er ... it's rent which we we're gonna clear |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3955] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3956] there's twelve for rates, and the twelve and, other two's ours which we're ... we |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3957] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3958] can, we can stand on that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3959] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3960] You've got, you've got like ... water rate, twelve hundred, er, rates, twelve ... but er, what we could try to do is approach them and see if we can lump it in with this year and that, obviously have to pay higher |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3961] I mean, some of it is ... is the next two month anyway ... erm |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3962] Yeah. [3963] But we we'd usually have ... no |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3964] but |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3965] rents, er we've no er ... we've lease to pay back have we or owt like that? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3966] Oh and the other ... the other thing is, is, is by asking Fred for |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3967] To pay. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3968] That's right. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3969] But even so, then ask Fred on the long term would be ideal. [3970] Er, the biggest thing is for us is ... is making payable for you. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3971] Yeah. [3972] I mean |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3973] At first |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3974] we've not gone any further with this Fre with Fred because |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3975] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3976] we're just leaving it ... so we sort ourselves out first on, on how |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3977] Yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3978] we feel happy with it and |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3979] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3980] and whe how, how, whether you want ... Fred involved in, in what way. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3981] Well it's really that's needed be here, you know, if we ca |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3982] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3983] if we can |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3984] And |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3985] if we can resolve it ... with ... cos then you're getting summat on a different style of thinking to that, you know, I know Fred doesn't wanna be involved but then you've always got somebody, well we'll have to go and see Fred first. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3986] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3987] And, and I don't know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3988] Yeah, you could work it |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3989] Go see Fred and he's probably got a few more pounds ready available than |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3990] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3991] than we have. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3992] Oh yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3993] You know, that's the er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3994] That's right. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3995] bit difficult. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3996] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3997] And that's your er, cos er personally |
Barry (PS03W) |
[3998] Oh, I've got the |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[3999] I'll say that it's not. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4000] accounts in various ... off-shore [laughing] islands and, and |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4001] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4002] black bin liners in his back garden [] . |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4003] If we can sort him out with rates and, I don't know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4004] If he can o if we can offset, if we can use all, if he'll [...] out time type of thing |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4005] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4006] with that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4007] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4008] erm ... the oh er |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4009] You've gotta put an offer in and pay it so much a month haven't you or something and, and, and get it paid off over a period of time? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4010] And then you can do it without Fred and, really, with Fred is, is at the end of day you could pro ... proof pay load could go back to yourself and I, I E ... and ourselves, but by having him that other cut ... you're gonna be saying well ... it's all a bit more than ... your share. [4011] I mean, from my point of view ... I don't think he's ever |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4012] I don't think Fred'd be looking for anything as a return. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4013] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4014] Not in the shor |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4015] I'd be quite happy to come |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4016] not in the short term. [4017] Not in the short term. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4018] you get tucked into it, and obviously there we'll keep it ... sort of low profile. [4019] But giving it a good clean out ... and getting |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4020] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4021] it dus painted behind the things whatever, come on Sunday or whatever ... and just say that you might |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4022] In return, yeah. [4023] Just take a |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4024] quite keen just to sort of get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4025] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4026] mucked into it |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4027] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4028] just to save money |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4029] See if you can get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4030] but as long as, I say, the biggest thing from my point er ... is ... not to so lose money if you can do from where we're going. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4031] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4032] And use the fifteen grand to its best ... image in the way that you feel then you can turn round and run a club ... so it can get people in. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4033] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4034] And we can get the lighting in. [4035] Because that's what your best thing is |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4036] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4037] you've got the ideas ... and th the motions. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4038] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4039] And for yourself, and what we don't wanna do is like I say, is spend money that ... is just gonna disappear and say shit! [4040] We haven't really improved the pub's ... barrelage ... if goes away. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4041] No. [4042] I mean,th the other aspect of the, of the fif ... the other aspect of the, the brewery and me that I was ... talking about, er I'm thinking about is that we we could do with ... you know, okay those,th those figures are ... I mean, unless they're really realistic it's gonna be ... you know, six months or so |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4043] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4044] before we start getting up to the kind of figures where we can actually see a ... you know |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4045] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4046] a profit each week |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4047] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4048] a a, a, reasonably substantial profit, I mean |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4049] That's right, yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4050] so, with the best will in the world it's going to be six months so let's ... so we need a little of breathing space |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4051] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4052] on that six months. [4053] Now ... er, er obviously if, if we can, if we can get the money off the brewery cos ... you know, if we can get a little bit more |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4054] That's right, yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4055] than we actually need to spend that ... that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4056] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4057] enables us to ... you know, have that breathing space ... erm ... so we can start |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4058] Well what, what we can, you know I say, he's offering us this fifteen unsecured if we can, mind you |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4059] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4060] I don't know if we can squeeze any more or what |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4061] I reckon |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4062] but, but, you know if say well look, you know, we could do with twenty five and he turns round and [...] he might say well ... you know,yo he might say no |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4063] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4064] but we know we've got fifteen just to get us |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4065] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4066] going. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4067] Yeah. [4068] Yeah. [4069] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4070] What he said then is look, you know ... hey he's, all you're saying really |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4071] is ah, if your barrelage is there then what we do is buy ... five or six barrels from Morecambe Bay Wines. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4072] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4073] You can soon get rid of those. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4074] You can say Morecambe Bay Wines and buy ... all his |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4075] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4076] cos what I, I just said to him I said look, I says a er sometimes I says it's an awkward time drop for us. [4077] Says well we'll get it delivered here ... you know, only without |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4078] Yeah well that's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4079] invoice. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4080] That's what we wanted innit? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4081] Well what we do, what we use |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4082] What we do is buy it barrelled and and |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4083] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4084] get out be |
Barry (PS03W) |

[4086] Morecambe Bay License form. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4087] Barrel or keg. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4088] Because we ca we can live on thirty pound on barrel [...] can't we? [4089] I think we can do. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4090] I'd like you to ... just purely myself, I'm not saying I'm ... right and you're not right and people like |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4091] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4092] my o my own personal view is if we just ... pay the fifteen and it's sort of off in there straight away and then spend ... but not to sort of say, well you can spend it and update it can't you? [4093] But spend what we feel is gonna make the club |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4094] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4095] better image like you say |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4096] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4097] somebody comes to look at it just for a view ... I mean, I say, I, I'm quite happy coming like I said th ... if you motion behind there, make the bar presentable ... we'll fill it out with stock ... then that'll look better |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4098] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4099] but if we do display |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4100] Put more stock in. |

[4105] that could decorate that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4106] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4107] You know, and we'll do it ourselves, I say ... I mean, what you want Barry is like wanna keep it ... low profile. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4108] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4109] But we've both got time to sort, I say, somebody, we'd enjoy doing it. [4110] Because we, we, we either do it ourselves and spend |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4122] Yeah. [4123] I mean things like what I want on desperately quickly is Rebel Yell cos they're ... spending a fortune in the rock, well all our punters all know it. [4124] I mean you go down in London it's the ... it's just like Rebel Yell everywhere, but it's all heavy rock ... so |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4266] That's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |

[4272] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4273] And then er, they brought it back and then they started doing ... to quarter to six, but it still wasn't good enough cos ... you can't, you can't have all these people in suits and briefcases stood outside a pub for quarter of an hour waiting [laughing] for it open [] , you know |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4274] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4408] the nearest one |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4409] You mean, it's a fire exit so that's the problem so you're not gonna be able to leave anything in it ... that would obstruct. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4410] But ... ah, so this, it's the actual fire exit for here int |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4411] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4416] Yeah. [4417] It goes out next to the cellar. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4418] I suppose like you say at nine thirty once the music starts no one 's gonna want to |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4419] Oh er, if you put, if you put ... if you put wrought iron gates [...] gates decorated type of thing round there |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4420] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4421] and then ... somebody stands there, two fifty ... that's what I were thinking, an admission from here. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4422] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4423] And, and wrought iron it, yeah, you know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4424] Well wrought iron'd look ... it'd look quite good for the functions trade as well cos you can get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4425] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4426] the artificial plants up it |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4427] Mm. |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4438] I mean close that area down. |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4440] Yeah. [4441] Yeah. [4442] ... And then they'll cause the atmosphere rather than |

[4490] [...] pint they buy, and if they buy five pints |
Barry (PS03W) |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4493] Can you imagine Polly organizing that all! |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4494] We're getting complicated aren't we? |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4495] Why can't we do it, to me, cost effective. |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4496] Torture. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4497] Complicating issues. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4498] I remember ... at the Uni when we used to give ... we used to put stamps on people, you know, |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4499] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4500] for pass outs and that or anything |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4501] So does Broadway. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4502] and er ... I bloody, I said, I said in the end I've, what we ought to do is ... lop some part of their anatomy off, like a little digit or something then we can prove they've been in |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4503] eventually, after about two years when you get this sort of ... armless, legless cor |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4504] Oh oh! [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4505] body ... oh he's a good customer! [4506] [laughing] We'll let him in for free! [4507] He gets a free, free ticket [] ! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4508] Well it's like, like a ... all you want to do is [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4509] That's what you get, [...] ... you just gotta stand or you went downstairs to another bar |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4510] Yeah,th the trouble is you're |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4511] and got a stamp |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4512] you |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4513] and they would |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4514] you, you're doing it in the same ... room |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4515] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4516] aren't you? [4517] That's the [...] . |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4518] That is as well. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4519] But I ... I dunno, I ... see it's not ... once you're u actually up here, looking ... I think it's different when you're up here looking back as when you're over there looking up here. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4520] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4521] It's not quite as cold and empty as |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4522] If it got going you'd probably use mo ... another, another half of area, you know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4523] Yeah, yeah, you want |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4524] you don't wanna close it off. [4525] But, like you say maybe just ... just a bit of wrought |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4526] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4527] ironwork |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4528] Yeah. [4529] I think so. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4530] to just |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4531] I think you do I think that would look good anyway ... and |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4532] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4533] and it would also enable you to ... quickly and easily do something on the erm ... on the, on the private functions night to make it look ... different. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4534] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4535] I mean, I wouldn't suggest putting |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4536] plants up and everything ... for our normal ... you know, rock nights, I mean we just ... have the wrought iron up and whatever, but |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4537] I mean, with them sort of then |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4538] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4539] once you got erm tied into these you can |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4540] Oh yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4541] do whatever to the thing. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4542] Yeah. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4543] But it would give you affect. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4544] That's right. [4545] I mean, those are just ... we just went out and chucked a few fucking trees down. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4546] They're not real then Barry? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4547] No, the trees are ... the er ... things tied on to them aren't. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4548] Oh. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4549] But er |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4550] Yeah. [4551] ... I think, it's quite actually, it needs a bit of character. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4552] I mean, that'll cover |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4553] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4554] if you did that in quite a few places |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4555] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4556] throughout the room it would cover your cracks and your holes |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4557] Ye |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4558] and your, your [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4559] I mean, what we initially wanted to do with all this was cover this whole area in, in greenery and have this as a sort of restaurant ta type. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4560] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4561] I mean, again, it's ideas when you're sat |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4562] It's ideas. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4563] planning, before you've actually moved in and get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4564] It is. [4565] Yeah, yeah, that's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4566] and get ... and then, then you start |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4567] that's, that's the other thing when there's only two of you involved ... and you, we were opening for that first sort of eighteen months ... five, six days a week ... just keeping on top of a day to day business doesn't allow you to sit back |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4568] No, I know that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4569] and expand it, and whereas, you know, that, that's one area that'd be great with having yo your involvement |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4570] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4571] that you go in and say well ... you know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4572] It sounds like this sort of thing |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4573] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4574] When did you paint all this green? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4575] It was when I was working for Walt Disney, so it'll be ... two years ago. [4576] Two years |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4577] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4578] ago. [4579] I was over in Belfast and I came back and it were green. [4580] It was alri it's, it's actually lasted reasonably well considering it hadn't been |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4582] for two years. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4583] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4584] But again, it was all done, it was all literally done in a weekend. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4585] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4586] It was like a ... virtually an all night blitz job and ... so bits of it, you know, it wasn't like, totally completed, you know, you've got ... and as Scouse was doing some of it it was er ... [laughing] the paintwork leaves something to be desired in ... areas [] . |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4587] Something there Barry ... little bit in there look. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4588] Just coming down a little bit. [4589] They just need brushing back up. |

[4597] Yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4598] Erm |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4617] Well we, well we, we can start if you wanna start with the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4618] Or we can think about doing something about |

[4620] this. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4621] We can start giving it a lick of paint if you wanna start giving it a lick of paint. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4622] You see, now the more you think about it, I mean the more you ... you don't actually use this |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4623] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4624] very much. [4625] I mean, you look at it, if everybody was seated in this area that could be seated ... I mean, you're only talking about bloody |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4626] I |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4627] thirty people. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4628] I don't think it's too bad actually. [4629] I don't think the carpet's too bad at all really. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4630] Well th there's areas, I mean |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4631] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4632] tha the licens |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4633] Oh yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4634] the licensing people would pull us up on that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4635] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4636] if they came. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4637] But maybe, if you could cut it off from there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4638] That's what I mean, you gotta ... and then do it, clear it, and then clear all that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4639] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4640] and just left that area |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4641] Clear all that |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4642] and they're obviously, they're gonna say |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4643] Come right up to the ... right up to bar really aren't you? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4644] [sigh] ... Yeah. [4645] I mean th th er, the other thing psychologically is it's, you know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4646] Blue Rhapsody. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4647] Blue Rhapsody. [4648] If you wanted to cha if you want to change it slightly you've got ... a problem. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4649] You know ... I think it, I think it's something that you can say well ... you know, that'd be one of our objectives |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4650] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4651] once we get it going, but le |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4652] Mm. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4658] Mm. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4659] now. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4662] Get your salary, that you feel that I'm doing this and I'm getting it right. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4667] That's right. [4668] That's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4669] And we've gotta |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4670] That's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4671] manipulate people to say well, how do we get them drink more? [4672] And you say like five pound a head when they ... they come in |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4673] How bad's the seating though? |
Barry (PS03W) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4684] An upholster. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4686] Yeah. [4687] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4688] Because, because it is only patched up, it's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4689] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4690] it ... create more problems o you know ... cos people stand on it and |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4698] Just, just ... tart it up really. |

[4699] There's a bit of structural damage to the support |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4700] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4701] and things like that, that ... start the seating going and things. |

[4751] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4752] be. [4753] But er, in the end they never got the license back. [4754] Because what they did try and do is buy the catholic club didn't they? [4755] Top of Lancasters. [4756] Next to the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4757] Cos the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4758] Alex. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4759] The Alex. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4760] They tried to get behind there, the catholic |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4762] club. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4763] Right. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[4766] But er ... he actually owed |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4767] Yeah, that used to be |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4768] about five grand at one stage and got it down to three and half, and then he got to six hundred and eighty ... and they went to court |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4769] and then they got [...] |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4770] [...] ... He paid it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4771] Paid it ... through the court. |
Barry (PS03W) |

[4774] lucky. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4775] Yeah I know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4776] He didn't half go for a lot again. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4777] Yes we did seem to be quite lucky to keep [laughing] [...] [] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4778] Yeah. [4779] But I, I, I'm amazed that breweries keep lending him money! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4780] I know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4781] I mean, it's unbelievable, you know th er, he's done so many breweries and yet why they don't talk to wo well I mean they must talk to one another. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4782] Because you get people like Ben who's giving his money he doesn't really give a toss! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4783] He don't give a toss. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4784] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4785] As long as he's got an installation going in and if it |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4786] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4787] if it gets written off or |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) |
[4788] Gets bigger. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4789] or someone has to take a, a bi a co company has to take a big lot off. |
Unknown speaker (KBDPSUNK) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4790] It's par for the course really. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4791] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[4792] Well, you know. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Hugh (PS03Y) | [whistling] |
Terri (PS03X) |
[4903] forgotten all about it, anyway ... she found a little dent ... apparently our Laura said that's just as bad as finding lumps.

[4931] That was last time's agent. [4932] And he said, oh well it's probably being discussed at the next meeting. [4933] Well he's under a lot [...] or else he won't. [4934] Still ... he won't come if he thinks there's any ... messing about. [4935] I mean,i it would be ... zilch for the Labour Party to try and swap candidates now.

[5141] That was very lucky! |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5142] It was Bob who told me he booked we ... our union normally stay at the Claremont you see. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5143] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5144] She said I've got, only got three twin rooms left in the whole of this hotel ... so ... I'll ring Francis and tell her. |
Hugh (PS03Y) | [whistling] |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5145] It's alright the Claremont. [5146] Oh, they're always quite nice |

Barry (PS03W) |
[5149] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |

Hugh (PS03Y) | [whistling] |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5151] [phonecall starts] Francis? [5152] It's Jean here. [5153] I ... yes, I've just had my massive little row with The Savoy ... about the prices and they just wanted to charge us the normal price! [5154] So I've said they can get stood on. [5155] And I booked at the Claremont ... which is, twenty eight pounds. [5156] Well, I'm not being prepared to be held to ransom by them. [5157] And I'm, I'm faxing ... erm ... I'm sorry, I'm not gonna fax it, I'm just going to send a letter to national office ... about The Savoy in First Leisure. [5158] Because they can't do this to delegates! [5159] Cos they did it with you last year didn't they? [5160] Mm. [5161] ... Yeah. [5162] Yeah. [5163] Well, I think we should tell national office that this is, you know, this is happening and it's not on! [5164] ... I've got ... I'll tell you what I've got, I've got for nineteen ninety two ... confere Register of Conference Accommodation, from national office ... whe where they tell you to book! [5165] You know, cos I'd got it at a P P C as well, for national conference. [5166] So I've actually two you see. [5167] So ... erm ... I'm sending one back to national office saying, these hotels are sending confirmation at the full price for local government conference. [5168] Now ... I, I've rung the Claremont and they've said, oh yes, it's the conference erm ... you know ... amount ... and we're very,appar we were, I was very lucky cos we got the last three rooms. [5169] And she said, we're absolutely booked up! [5170] But, you see Bob told me about it, he said, well he, you know ... booked at the Claremont because he'd had problems getting prices out of the others. [5171] But, our union always stay at the Claremont and we've always found it, you know, okay. [5172] But I'm, I'm not paying sixty five quid a night! [5173] It's just stupid Francis! [5174] Cos you're never in it. [5175] I mean, you always go to ... you know, somewhere else don't you? |
Hugh (PS03Y) | [whistling] |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5176] I didn't ask Francis, so just let me tell you ... erm ... they were when I went, it's A, B, D, E, and it's got all the letters next to them. [5177] You know, they say there's a full range of facilities ... and ... I'm just looking ... A is central, bedroom, I'll tell you, I'll, I'll, I'll, we'll whiz through them. [5178] A is central heating, C is car parking, D is ... street car parking, E is special diets catered for, F, tea and coffee making facility, G is television in bedrooms at no extra charge ... I is for [...] answering and J ... [...] ... K, I've, I'm, just to go all through this, disabled facilities, L ... separate [...] ... M ... bedrooms available with private telephones in, it's N, number of bedrooms available with ... private bathroom and toilet or shower and toilet. [5179] And that's what it says. [5180] It was, was when I went Francis. [5181] Night porter, Q is lifts to all floor, and S is swimming pool ... and I know there's a swimming pool because ... not that I ever used it, but ... ma it, it was when I booked Francis. [5182] It's right on the prom on the corner on, on North Prom. [5183] It's not far from the Imperial Francis. [5184] So ... but it was erm ... just go on that bit of the prom, it's huge! [5185] It's a huge hotel on the corner. [5186] You can't miss it. [5187] I'll, I'll give you the o the address anyway. [5188] Erm, two hundred and seventy North Prom. [5189] ... Yeah. [5190] Two seventy North Prom. [5191] Erm, and you just say what ... yeah, two seventy North Prom. [5192] It's, it's pa just past, if you keep going past the Pembroke ... it's there. [5193] But erm ... that's right, going out. [5194] Yes. [5195] It's just past there. [5196] You can't lose it Francis, cos it's one of the major hotels. [5197] Yeah. [5198] They've got, they've got lots of bars, there's a bar in the basement and there's bars upstairs, and a dance floor and a swimming pool and ... I'm sure it will Francis. [5199] I mean ... yeah, well I don't blame him. [5200] But it says ... number of bedrooms available with private bathroom and toilet, or shower and toilet. [5201] There are very few hotels of this standard that don't have showers and toilets. [5202] So ... it's twenty eight Francis, which is, I think is ... yes. [5203] Yes. [5204] Well, it doesn't matter where we go to eat does it? [5205] And we, can go and eat wherever we want. [5206] Oh! [5207] But ... th you can have bed and breakfast and evening meal if you want. [5208] Erm, but generally,ye I mean cos Eileen and I go to a [...] ... we nearly always go somewhere like Carriages or ... you know, somewhere Italian ... which is, you know, it might, it all depends on what Jim's eating at the time. [5209] But, but ... you can't go wrong, there's plenty to eat in Blackpool can you? [5210] In fact, I'm trying to think of a place that erm ... we once went when we ... at regional conference, it was behind the Claremont somewhere. [5211] It was a ... it was a ... little Italian restaurant with about forty six ... and we went at regional conference and it was astounding! [5212] It was a really brilliant chef! [5213] I'll try and get Bob to find the ... the number of it. [5214] Cos that was really ... a really nice place. [5215] But, you wouldn't have expected to find it where you found it. [5216] No. [5217] You know the road behind the promenade? [5218] It was on that road. [5219] And we only found it by chance, you know how you go off to ... think oh I'll, I'll go and find a coffee or something, and we found this restaurant at lunch time and had a coffee there ... and we looked at the menu and, you know, we, we couldn't believe it! [5220] Yeah. [5221] Well I'll try, I'll try and get Bob to remember the name of it. [5222] Alright. [5223] And so I'll see you when we get there Francis. [5224] I said we'll a probably arrive early afternoon. [5225] So ... no ... doesn't ... well you know what he'll be like, he'll be messing about all day. [5226] But I know Kinnock's speaking at four isn't he? [5227] So we ... I want to ... Yeah. [5228] Yeah. [5229] Oh well he'll have to be then. [5230] Yeah. [5231] ... Yeah. [5232] That's alright. [5233] Don't worry. [5234] I'll, I'll look after [...] . [5235] Because there's erm ... there's ... Geoff and Louise are staying with us, and Eileen and I are staying. [5236] You and Jim are staying. [5237] And I know that Bob and Sue have booked at the Claremont so there'll be quite a few of us there. [5238] So, I'll, I'll keep an eye on us. [5239] And I'll go and have a look at your room. [5240] [laugh] ... Just to make sure everything's alright ... before he gets there. [5241] Right. [5242] Thanks Francis. [5243] See you Friday. [5244] Bye [phonecall ends] . [5245] ... I should have checked that shouldn't I? |

[5249] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5250] Well they said, the number of rooms ... didn't it? [5251] Didn't say all rooms. [5252] And if you've got the last three I can't believe that the last three are en suite. |

Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Terri (PS03X) | [laugh] |

[5304] Oh don't Francis! [5305] I mean er, I'd, I'd never have lived it down. [5306] ... Yeah. [5307] Well that's what he'd say to me, why didn't find out first? [5308] So, anyway, you're reduced from, [laugh] ... so it's en suite. [5309] Yeah. [5310] She said ... exactly Francis! [5311] Well we'll spend it on food and drink Francis. [5312] [laugh] ... But erm ... er, I feel a lot more comfortable cos I think sixty five pounds a night's outrageous! [5313] For just spending ... well, for us, when we're just, you're only there for ... your breakfast aren't you? [5314] You never go back again. [5315] So ... because we'll be able to have lunch at British Home Stores. [5316] [laugh] ... [laughing] We'll not be able to break with tradition [] . [5317] Geoff will insist that we go to British Home Stores for, well we'll, if, if we we're with Geoff and Louise, that's where we generally go to lunch, and ... it's really nice! [5318] It's a lovely ... self-service [laughing] in Blackpool [] . [5319] But ... [laugh] ... you know the Labour Party is worse than the Conservatives for traditions aren't they? [5320] Mm. [5321] Anyway, look ... I'll find out from Bob about this restaurant and ... see if there's a possibility that it might be worth booking before I go. [5322] But I know that Jim's going to have to [...] . [5323] And I ... I don't want to spend all night chasing round Blackpool looking for ... for a place that serves ordinary food of a decent ... standard. [5324] Right Francis. [5325] I'll leave on that note. [5326] [laugh] ... Bye [phonecall ends] . [5327] Yeah, she does want to go. [5328] They don't want him trailing down th |

Barry (PS03W) |
[5371] Well you probably, I mean you, you as, you as well, so ... I mean, you probably won't |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5372] No he's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5373] be able to get there till this evening and you probably won't be able to see him will you? |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5374] No. [5375] Well a as long as he knows I'm looking for him. [5376] They erm ... wa when we to we, we were staying at the Claremont ... and ... I don't, oh, I think we just decided we'd find a cup of coffee. [5377] It was M S F thing, we were with Margaret about the ... M S F. [5378] And ... said, oh, let's go and find a cup of coffee ... but, have a bit of a walk and walk down to conference but we'll not walk down the prom |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5379] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5380] we'll walk down the road at the back ... and we'd only just turned round the corner from the Claremont and we found this restaurant ... and it was, it was an absolutely brilliant chef, really nice restaurant, really high quality ... and it was ... was ... quite reasonable price, it wasn't cheap. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5381] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5382] So, when we found this we thought ooh, this is alright! [5383] You know, we'll ... so we've been quite a few times since, but I cannot think of the name of it. [5384] You see, Jim doesn't like, I mean, we'd go to Carriages probably ... cos it's a ... a proper Italian |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5385] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5386] that absolutely reeks with garlic and ... all the rest of it. [5387] Well ... that means Jim will pull a face! [5388] Or he'll start going |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5389] Oh, this big international financier! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5390] Oh! [5391] No! [5392] Not, I mean, is the, when it comes down to food ... wi he's a traditionalist. [5393] So we've always got to find somewhere to eat that's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5394] You're gonna be pushed getting, you know, roast beef and Yorkshire in Brussels aren't you? |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5395] God knows! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5396] Steak and kidney pie! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5397] You're joking! [5398] Cos everybody sort of, just try to think, think of in Brussels. [5399] Why they go, they go to er ... a six course sort of have as much main course as you like. [5400] It's a ... a ... a re a really nice restaurant ... but you can pick all your food raw ... and they just, there's a chef cooking, and you just get one of these plates, you can have as many helpings as you want, they serve you a cold starter and a hot starter ... but there's ... a buffet that's about ... half the size of our club ... and one side of it it's all ... fish on a wet fish slab, and steak, and veal, and chicken and ... so there's every sort of meat you can think of, and you can pick a wooden platter full of it, so you go and give it the chef with this number that they give you ... and then they come serve you with whatever you want. [5401] And you can have as many helpings of whatever you want. [5402] And the salad stuff ... and fresh fruit and all that sort of thing, takes ... about the full length of our bar up ... you know, you, you couldn't think of a salad that isn't there. [5403] But you can't, and there's, then there's loads of hot veg. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5404] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5405] There's no vegetables you can't mention. [5406] I think it's about twenty quid a head, but you can actually have as many meals as you want, or as many puddings as you want. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5407] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5408] It's ... it really is ... really very, very good. [5409] The Labour Party came to ... to use that quite a lot. [5410] Because ... they've got ... big seating areas as well, where they put, sort of eight tables together and all your party can sit together. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5411] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5412] When we were there ... Stan was with us and he'd ... been a few times to Brussels ... to with the Labour Party and, and he said oh it's great! [5413] Because ... usually you go off to a restaurant and if there's twenty of you ... you can't sit together can you? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5414] No. [5415] No. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5416] But, he said, this restaurant makes a particular thing of ... seating big parties. [5417] It was a brilliant restaurant! [5418] Really ... really ... nice. [5419] So ... you know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5420] Sergio's going to erm ... erm ... one, some Cubs visit to London at er ... half term. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5421] Baden Powell House? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5422] Yeah, but the |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5423] Mary took it. [5424] It's brilliant! [5425] Absolutely great! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5426] And er, so she said ... she, she wants to take the last couple of days away |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5427] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5428] so she's, her aunty's going to Dublin, so I got these things and they were really cheap actually. [5429] There's the train fare from here to Holyhead return, the ferry, transfers to their hotel ... the best hotel in Dublin, The Burlington |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5430] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5431] is absolutely stupendous! [5432] Two nights bed and breakfast, full Irish breakfast, which means [laughing] you won't need to eat until the evening [] ! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5433] You won't eat again. [5434] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5435] Erm ... train, free bus passes round Dublin, includes their bus fares and, and train on those sort of metro type thing |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5436] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5437] they have in Dublin ... all for eighty five quid! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5438] Eh? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5439] I know. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5440] Why? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5441] The only problem is, that the hotel that Mary's like, ah! [5442] This looks beautiful. [5443] Cos I, I, that second hotel, [...] hotel, the only thing, is the Burlington. [5444] And I daren't, I'm not gonna tell her, but I, I, I'm trying to say, well, it's a little bit out, it's in a park and er,th th but it looks gorgeous! [5445] I said, yeah I know. [5446] And it was, where they had their honeymoon. |
Terri (PS03X) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5447] So I'm going, oh no! [5448] Not for [...] ... just er ... Siobhan, and sister-in-law, erm ... is the head of Town and Travel and, Manchester |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5449] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5450] Town and Travel, and she got ... the ... presidential suite at the Burlington which is like a, you know, I mean, erm, it's absolutely gorgeous! [5451] And it was, it was about two hundred pounds a night and got it for ten pounds a night. [5452] [laugh] ... That was about, well, ten years ago, when ... well ... well it's really appropriate. [5453] So I think, well ... this is a, this is actually on O'Connell Street, that's right in the centre. [5454] But I mean, that's actually th th one, one of the, that was the, the, the other ones like four star hotels were on O'Connell Street which actually opens [...] ... only seventy seven quid. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5455] I know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5456] That's including all that travel and |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5457] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5458] and ... I mean, it's incredible though! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5459] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5460] And it's something like twenty quid for an extra night if you want to stay, the problem is the Holyhead ferries, they're dreadful! [5461] You know |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5462] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5463] one gets you in at seven fifteen which means ... you're only really getting one day |
Terri (PS03X) |

[5615] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5616] There's, there's Steve , Dave ... er, all the men's meeting at the hideaway |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5617] Oh yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5618] is now going to be at the [...] . [5619] ... We think she should, might stand down gracefully, if she doesn't erm ... she, we could refuse to adopt, but she's over there personally. [5620] Erm, I'm in two minds about what to do. [5621] I could ... name names and say ... because this is not a party decision, it's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5622] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5623] Dave , Steve , etcetera, and [...] . [5624] Now, who's Dave ? [5625] ... Senior employee of the City Council |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5626] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5627] meeting with ... the leader of the Labour group who's ... supposedly doing all this to protect his wife. [5628] The reason he's married to her ... I mean, even [...] . [5629] I could, I could really throw the dirt at them ... by saying that I'll, you know, if there is a conspiracy ... there's, a person here who's been involved in a very iffy part of the budget, who all of a sudden after ten years of ... slagging off the town clerk, all of a sudden he's totally on the town clerk's side, together with ... Councillor . [5630] Why? [5631] The only person who's involved in both, allowing the town clerk to take these decisions, without any ... interference at all |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5632] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5633] and now conspiring with a senior employee of the council, and of course, [...] . [5634] Just not so. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5635] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5636] All of a sudden this erm ... worry about this budget heading, is being swept under the carpets and everybody being told is all in been er ... cleared up. [5637] It's Dave [...] . [5638] I'd fire him. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5639] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5640] I could really make this into a very great conspiracy for [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5641] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5642] Apart from which, this meeting that they're supposed to be going to have ... is totally out of order anyway. [5643] Cos nobody's been sent any notices for it or notified about it. [5644] So I mean, I, I could |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5645] What the hell are they doing now! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5646] get the full meeting cance I mean, you get Ashdown yesterday, his party rally round him like |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5647] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5648] royalty's going of fashion! [5649] You get, I mean, Dave and Steve , alright, they've never been my favourite people ... but ... all this pious goings-on with Dave , how much he hates the town clerk, and whatever opportunity he could get ... he would |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5650] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5651] take. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5652] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5653] First opportunity, real opportunity he gets ... he's ... doing everything the town clerk wants him to do. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5654] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5655] I just, I, I, honestly Barry, I've got to the stage where I believe in this conspiracy [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5656] Mm. [5657] ... Well certainly some people want ... some answers want to be given on this ... budget, er me as well, I mean, he can't just suddenly say |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5658] Well |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5659] it's all been sorted out, don't worry about it. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5660] Well ... I think it will be really stupid. [5661] [...] ... But I shall say ... Dave ... |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5662] And how long [...] ? [5663] Well I park |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5664] I'll put |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5665] er |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5666] I'll drop you off. [5667] Cos I want to go home and [...] , I've got to home cos I've ... I've a stack of paperwork on my table. [5668] I'm not gonna be able to set off much later on remember because |
Barry (PS03W) | [...] |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5669] There's no point in me getting |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5670] Nope. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5671] I'll have to go up to shop to get some shopping cos there's ... nothing to eat in the house. [5672] So I'll have to do something [...] . [5673] ... Alright Barry? [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5674] I just wonder what on earth they're, they're playing at with ... ha, cha cha cha cha cha cha. [5675] You know, I just don't understand what they're playing but th you know |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5676] They |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5677] they can only be doing ... damage to th to the election chances I mean |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5678] Well they |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5679] they can't be achieving anything else! |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5680] I mean saying things like ... a successor has already been identified. [5681] I mean ... it's just stupid! [5682] Cos the general view in Morecambe isn't what they say it is. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5683] Yeah, but it gives the impression there's a split group innit? |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5684] Well, you give the impression of a ... a faction in the party, now ... I could, I could serve this faction quite easily ... to ... Mike who'd give me a lot of say ... if I said, you know,th the ... the plot thickens, you know, here's a town |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5685] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5686] hall employee |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5687] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5688] always an opponent of the town clerk ... also now ... erm ... trying to cause problems. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5689] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5690] I mean, that really does make the plot thicken ... doesn't it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5691] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5692] I mean, why was Dave being quoted for [...] , what has it got to with Dave ? [5693] He's not an officer of the constitut he isn't a treasurer, he isn't secretary, he's, he's nothing ... as far the constituency's concerned. [5694] They, if they want any quotes why don't they go and see chairman, who's Terry? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5695] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5696] I mean, this is them deliberately saying things to their friends ... and deliberately stirring it. [5697] They, oh! [5698] Because, I mean, I know where it's coming from, some of it's coming from Stanley , who, who thinks ... if I don't stand down it will damage Ruth's chances. [5699] That's not Ruth's own view of it. [5700] Well it, and I don't think with the News of the World round their necks they can afford to start playing silly people. [5701] Because I'm, you know, if they sa if they keep crossing me the way they are, quite frankly I'm ... you know, willing to make remarks myself. [5702] Although I don't want to do damaging things, but ... I don't see why I should be the person con cons constantly getting the flack from a group of people who were ... you know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5703] Yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5704] Who are genuinely trying to do damage to the party. [5705] ... So do you want me to call at the 's now? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5706] Yeah. [5707] There's, may as well. [5708] ... Well, don't know. [5709] Well it doesn't really matter, I'll, I'll be ... I mean, what, so ... I mean there's ... except for seeing Anne there's nothing more to do is there? |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5710] Well except to start getting that rubbish cleared away. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5711] Well I can't put it away. [5712] Don't want a pile in the cellar when carpet delivery comes. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5713] No, but I pu put it next to the lift ... and as soon as Hughey comes ... put it outside and when I come back I'll take it away. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5714] No you won't cos I'm meeting Ellial at, at half three. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5715] Well I mean, I should be back for half past two. [5716] I mean, if you want to just put it in that dustbin place and we'll take it tomorrow. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5717] Mm. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5718] You know, the washing up machine and everything, all, all of that needs cleaning out, all behind the bar needs cleaning. [5719] We're giving people a very bad impression if we're opening tonight and ... nothing's been cleared up. [5720] I think I'll go for it Barry. [5721] I'll, I'll go and see where he is, and say, you know ... That washing up and everything wants doing before tonight so you, so if you're gonna say ... oh, we're open tonight and the place still looks like a pig stye! [5722] It ain't gonna give a very good impression. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5723] Well he's not gonna want to, he's not,sha I mean he's ... it's not a meeting to look around the place is it really? |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5724] Well it is. [5725] That's what they're coming for. [5726] That's one of the things Richard is coming for, to look round. [5727] We'll come and have a good look round, I've never seen it. [5728] ... I mean, er, you know what that's to do with don't you? [5729] The repairs notice. [5730] Even if we only got all those old tickets and things into green bags and started cleaning that out it would ... it would look as though we're making some ... effort. [5731] Er, if I can get ... the and get him to come in ... reasonably soon, you know, I'll ring you and tell you whether he's in. [5732] If we could get him to come in reasonably quickly ... you could get all that stuff down and bagged up and we could get rid of it couldn't we? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5733] Which which tickets are you talking about? |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5734] Well all the old tickets and stuff, I mean, alright |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5735] Where? [5736] From where? |
Terri (PS03X) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[5738] Oh yeah. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5739] As well as all the junk that's in the cleaner's room, it all wants getting rid of. [5740] I mean, what's happening about these speakers then? [5741] ... I mean, is this supposed to be happening tonight or |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5742] No. |
Terri (PS03X) |

[5744] Well it's ... it's a trial. [5745] ... Go in then. |
Terri (PS03X) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[5747] No there's nothing. |
Terri (PS03X) |
[5748] Oh. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Terri (PS03X) |

[5933] I mean, you could be up with the fucking [...] couldn't you? [5934] For |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5935] Well that's, well, well, well, we're thinking of opening |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5936] Just as a pub like. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5937] yeah, we're gonna open as a pub during the summer ... erm |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5938] What about all these Barry? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5939] No, we'll keep those for su you never know. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5940] Yeah, okay. [5941] Put them in here? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5942] So we have ... and erm ... we're gonna open up the top bar, top bar ... and ripping up the carpet |
Hugh (PS03Y) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5943] in the main room, and lino in the main floor ... right, in, in sort of |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5944] Which one? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5945] probably blue |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5946] The [...] one? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5947] Yeah. [5948] And redoing the stage floor. [5949] And I'm ... carpeting ... I think I'll carpet tile |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5950] Have you had a price on what it's gonna cost to put that down? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5951] Not that much, cos we're getting the lino off Pete you see, and get the discount off [...] to do the, just for the lino |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5952] Oh right! [5953] Yeah, course. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5954] and then make it |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5955] Rhona's husband? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5956] Yeah. [5957] Ex-husband, yeah. [5958] Erm, and having a carpet tile ... because we can then do it red, white, and, not white, but red and blue ... you know. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5959] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5960] And, if you |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5961] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5962] damage a tile, then you're only replacing a tile. [5963] And just sort of carpet the two top areas, two raised areas, and have the other, the rest of it as a sort of lino ... floor. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5964] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5965] So then, then it, allows to dance as well, and basically ... hardly anybody sits in that area until the club's full anyway |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5966] Mm mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5967] so that they all go in the [...] . [5968] Erm, going to somehow, at the moment we're thinking of ... well Jean'll wanna do it, but I'm ... I'm thinking of doing some kind of ... I mean, we're agreed on what we're gonna do, but it's how we do it, I want some ka er, some kind of grilling around the top, the cocktail bar area, so you can open it as a, as a bar, and it'll have a sort of atmosphere in itself, so we open that as a pub type of thing, you know. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5969] Oh right! [5970] Yeah, yeah, yeah. [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5971] Leave the big screen on and that and we can put ... erm ... and get, you know, as I say, if you |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5972] Do you |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5973] you get, see if we can get hold of like, I mean you won't be able to get hold of a Wurlitzer because nowadays they're like gold dust, but you might be able to get hold of parts, you see. [5974] If you could just get hold of say, the rainbow |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5975] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5976] effect of a Wurli I mean, that's the beauty about it ... you, you'll never get hold of a Harley Davidson, but you might get hold of a petrol cap. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5977] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5978] You know, or things |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5979] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5980] like that, you know |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5981] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5982] and you just bang those around the place. [5983] Er, a few handlebars and whatever else and, but, but ... but don't do it like the British bikers, do it like an American ... bar, so it can be cleaned and |
Hugh (PS03Y) | [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5984] I mean it can look nice and |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5985] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5986] sparkling and fiftiesey, and ... lots of ... pictures and |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5987] Not the dirty bloody smell and greasy [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5988] No, that's right, yeah. [5989] That's right. [5990] You see, and then if, if, if, if, if sort of people are, you know, holiday makers come in, and it's an American theme, they expect it. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5991] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5992] As I say, they expect I've got music, it's not gonna come as a shock to them. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5993] They've got [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5994] You know, and it'll, and it'll have a sort of atmosphere I think. [5995] And, and it won't cost a lot to do, cos all you do instead of green, you'll paint that red ... and you've got the white pick out anyway, and a blue, seated blue carpet. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5996] I wondered what those fucking [...] ! |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[5997] No, where am I gonna be able to get rid of this? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5998] I don't know. |
Hugh (PS03Y) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[5999] I think we'll have to, I think we've got to keep it cos I think it's part of the fixtures and fittings unfortunately. |
Hugh (PS03Y) | [laugh] [cough] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6000] And I'm gonna do er, you know, lots of ... promotions and stuff ... promotions [...] on that |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6001] And then your promotions, yeah? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6002] Yeah. [6003] Yeah. [6004] We well what I think I'm gonna do is next Thur not this Thursday, we'll just have to live through this Thursday, but next Thursday, erm ... I'm gonna get ... get Stella back on, and I'm just gonna sell it as cost, whatever it is, sixty P a pint or whatever. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6005] [...] ? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6006] Yeah. [6007] I mean, cos at the end of the day if you've got the, if you've got, if you can get er sixty people |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6008] You'll [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6009] two fifty to come in, I don't mind if I'm giving the booze away! [6010] And er, as long you got the [...] . |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6011] As long as you're not losing on it. [6012] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6013] Well it doesn't matter does it? [6014] You know ... cos that's the only way we're gonna build Thursdays up. [6015] No |

Hugh (PS03Y) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6028] Er ... but, you know, I, I'd, as I say, I think er ... and then if we just, if we can just pick up like the odd ... I mean, I've, I've had a ... long chat with Anne, we've had a long, erm meeting with Anne yesterday about it, and she's gonna start pushing ... cos you know, she's really done the Royal upstairs, it's |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6029] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6030] a really beautiful room, but it only holds about forty, fifty people, what she's gonna do is push the weddings, but she's gonna, and say look, you can use this place |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6031] For the reception. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[6382] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6383] You know when we, we, when we first opened from a dead start ... right? [6384] The first fifty five weeks ... which is |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6385] Just over a year. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6386] a year ... we did na on the bar did ninety thousand quid. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6387] Jesus! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6388] The next five months ... less than half a year ... af the next five months after that right? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6389] When Jean stopped doing her silly things? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6390] Yeah. [6391] Well, yeah, when ... whe er er a after that first year the next five months ... seventy nine thousand! |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6392] Fucking hell! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6393] In five months. [6394] So if we'd have carried on at that |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6395] So you would have like, you would have well doubled that. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6396] Yeah. [6397] I mean tha th we, it, have been |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6398] Five months you would have equalled [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6399] Well I think we'd have gone to ... two hundred thousand. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6400] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6401] But that, at the end of that period was when Volks recalled the loan. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6402] Aye. [6403] And |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6404] And |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6405] you were buying seventy off them or something? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6406] Yeah. [6407] But er, but when |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6408] You were getting all your orders from them at that time? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6409] Yeah. [6410] But when Volks recalled the loan ... we sort of give up. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6411] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6412] I, we went two day week opening and not publicizing it, everything. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6413] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6414] So if we'd have just carried on the way that was going, I mean, that got it from ninety thousand in ... just over a year ... to, to seventy nine thousand in five months. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[6415] Jesus! [6416] It's amazing! |

[6570] er, where it follows this line. |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[6572] And it was a sort of ... funny shaped thing. [6573] Yeah. [6574] Just to here. [6575] And it was like, nothing, so we just extended all this out ... and made it into a stage come, a bigger dance floor cos the I don't know why they wa always seem to have this trends that, they have these trends in the seventies and that was, and eighties of having small dance floors |
Alan (PS040) |
[6576] Right tiny dance floors, yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6577] Right, that's ... and the disco console was open to the public so the public could just wander in and tap the D J on the ... back and tu change his records for him or whatever. [6578] It's a ... stupid opera so we've fenced that in. [6579] Erm ... but this is the area up here ... Anne, that I was sort of thinking that we could ... if we can, some kind of trellis or something ... around this raised area here ... you could actually open this bit ... as the, as a pub on a |
Alan (PS040) |
[6580] With what? [6581] Sorry! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6582] as a sort of pub, you know, on a Saturday and Sunday in the season. [6583] ... Food and that. [6584] You know, and with a big screen you can have like ... sport or Grandstand or |
Alan (PS040) |
[6585] Right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6586] ro music videos or whatever you wanna do. [6587] ... Get satellite in and get M T V on. [6588] Mind you, the satellite's gonna cost three hundred quid! [6589] Roughly. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6590] This is like cocktail bar bit |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6591] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[6604] Oh no. [6605] Nothing was cheap, I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[6606] No I wouldn't have thought it was. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6607] the seats are good, you know, these tables are bloody heavy! [6608] And they've done a ... you know, they did a good job when they built it. [6609] Erm ... I mean, you can see what he, what he intended doing ... was ... the plans were beautiful! [6610] This was ... gonna be ... there's a piano there on that |
Alan (PS040) |
[6611] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6612] raised area there, so this was like a piano bar |
Alan (PS040) |
[6613] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6614] there was gonna be a big fountain ... in the middle there |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[6616] this wasn't gonna be disco |
Alan (PS040) |
[6617] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6618] a big fountain in the middle there |
Alan (PS040) |
[6619] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6620] and an orange grow |
Alan (PS040) |
[6621] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6622] type affect, it was gonna be called the ora this was the blue one, so that was the orange |
Alan (PS040) |
[6623] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6624] purple, whatever. [6625] The bar was a double-sided open |
Alan (PS040) |
[6626] Bar across that other side? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6627] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6628] Great! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6629] And the other side |
Alan (PS040) |
[6630] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6631] which was gonna be a big glassed disco |
Alan (PS040) |
[6632] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6633] in there, and that was gonna be the disco, and this was the, you know, I mean it was a good idea, I don't know why he pulled out with ... went half-cock. [6634] Erm ... you know. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6635] True. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6636] These are the things we were talking about yesterday ... these uprights. [6637] I mean they just |
Alan (PS040) |
[6638] Erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6639] open for |
Alan (PS040) |
[6640] well you could shorten them anyway. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6641] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6642] You could just shorten them And |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6643] I mean they're very sort of vandal ... easy or whatever. [6644] Vandal a fa er vandal friendly ... hooligan friendly aren't they? |
Alan (PS040) |
[6645] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6646] Whatever! [6647] You know, I mean we just got them cheap ... erm ... lampshades from now on er cos it's not worth it cos th the expensive ones are just getting damaged all the time. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6648] We could shorten them anyway and just put lamps on them. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6649] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6650] Whatever. [6651] If you don't hang them on Gerry's ... thingy anyway. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6652] No you don't. [6653] That's right. [6654] ... See, if you sort of somehow trellis that area, that side in you could actually have this mo more intimate if people just wanted to |
Alan (PS040) |
[6655] Snog! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6656] sit in here. [6657] Yeah. [6658] Yeah. [6659] If you got, you know, if you got a character behind the bar ... could er ... attract people ... by his own force of personality. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6660] I think erm ... you could ... but you know, really then you think when |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6661] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6662] they come in we can start |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6663] Oh yeah. [6664] Yeah. [6665] Yeah it is. [6666] ... Cos I wouldn't lo ... I mean I actually don't think you can do, if you're gonna do ... people are gonna eat I th I think you're gonna be pushed at ... more than about hundred and fifty to two hundred. [6667] ... You know, depends on how you retail it first but |
Alan (PS040) |
[6668] I think it depends which it, what you |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6669] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6670] do. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6671] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6672] Erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6673] I mean, it depends a as you say, er yeah I mean it does depend that. [6674] Cos if, if you, if you, if you wanted to you could always utilize all the dance floor area ... tables and things, you know. [6675] If you had that kind of function that you ... you know |
Alan (PS040) |
[6676] Mm. [6677] Makes it difficult to do a big functions though in here with that stage. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6678] Oh yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6679] You know, to set out |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6680] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6681] you co there's no way |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6682] Yeah it does. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6683] you can set out for two hundred. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6684] No. [6685] No. [6686] What we did do |
Alan (PS040) |
[6687] And so |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6688] very well |
Alan (PS040) |
[6689] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6690] erm ... we were we some of the jazz stuff, I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[6691] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6692] it ... it, it never worked in a sense that it wasn't commercially viable |
Alan (PS040) |
[6693] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6694] but ... things like Kenny Ball and that we'd had |
Alan (PS040) |
[6695] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6696] and we had like the ta ... trestle tables in all these alcoves and people came and actually booked a meal |
Alan (PS040) |
[6697] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6698] and, and, you had a meal and sat and watched ... the band and everything. [6699] It wor i I mean ... for those ... it did work |
Alan (PS040) |
[6700] Different [...] sort of like |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6701] it did work. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6702] Yeah. [6703] Just |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6704] But |
Alan (PS040) |
[6705] need the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6706] you can see everywhere. [6707] And it did |
Alan (PS040) |
[6708] Put hot food |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6709] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6710] up at the back as well there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6711] Mm. [6712] Have you actually ... ever seen round this place properly? |
Alan (PS040) |
[6713] Not properly. [6714] No I haven't really. [6715] Whe whe where do you get to that round, round |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6716] No. |
Alan (PS040) |

Alan (PS040) |
[6721] I'll go up there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6722] Get your bearings. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6723] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6724] It actually looks bigger looking that way ... than it does when you're up there looking back, I think. [6725] Erm ... I'm thinking of atmosphere. [6726] ... But if we ... if we carpet the two raised areas in a sort of ... attract hardwearing linoey type affect on there cos you can |
Alan (PS040) |
[6727] What about the slipping? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6728] you can dance. [6729] Well ... you get |
Alan (PS040) |
[6730] The carpet, don't it really up here? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6731] No. [6732] Well i it's been down ... since it opened so that's |
Alan (PS040) |
[6733] Oh! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6734] gotta be eight or nine years. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6735] Mm! [6736] It's done well then. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6737] It's done well. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6738] It was on |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6739] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[6745] No you can't, no. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6746] Oh. [6747] Right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6748] Like, so it's sort of self-contained ... in one |
Alan (PS040) |
[6749] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6750] sense. [6751] ... Er |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |
[6754] And |

Alan (PS040) |
[6808] Jesus wept! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6809] pizza oven. |
Alan (PS040) |

Barry (PS03W) |

Alan (PS040) |
[6812] What's that, a dishwasher? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6813] Glass washer, yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6814] Glass washer, I meant. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6815] We've got er |
Alan (PS040) |
[6816] Have you got one behind bar? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6817] No. [6818] There's not. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6819] There int one behind the bar? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6820] No. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6821] Oh out in garden. [6822] Oh right! [6823] I see. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6824] So basically they've gotta just tray it up |
Alan (PS040) |
[6825] What you want is |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6826] tray it up here and then |
Alan (PS040) |
[6827] yeah, here and then |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6828] bang it straight in. [6829] Erm |
Alan (PS040) |
[6830] Why's your bar so high? [6831] I can't reach your pump ... [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6832] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6833] Have you? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6834] We like to keep the floor nice and sticky so the staff can't run away! |
Alan (PS040) |
[6835] Oh I see. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6836] Once they're behind here they're stuck all night. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6837] Think you got some cleaning, you just want ... that back in. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6838] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6839] You know what I mean, it's got ... [...] . [6840] ... And all that up there. [6841] Mm! [6842] Now then, so you'd ... carpet them two |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6843] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6844] and then ... summat ... washed |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6845] Well you see, hardly anybody ever sa ... they don't really sit in this area, all they do is er, I mean, they only sit |
Alan (PS040) |
[6846] Around the bar. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6847] right at the end of the, you know |
Alan (PS040) |
[6848] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6849] when it's full ... they'll sit on those two tables. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6850] You were going to clear that area anyway, don't they? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6851] Yeah. [6852] I mean, everybody round here just stands ... or sits on those bar stools. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6853] Mm. [6854] ... Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6855] When people first come in they go for the raised areas and sit down. [6856] O |
Alan (PS040) |
[6857] You have to see. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6858] or they stand at the bar. [6859] It's, and, and if you actually look on the actual area we're talking about, there's only one, two, three, four, there's only about ... half a dozen tables. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6860] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6861] Which is, you know, at maximum you're gonna get twenty four people sat around there anyway. [6862] So I think, in a way, it's erm ... a bit wasted carpeting it all. [6863] Cos it's a big area |
Alan (PS040) |
[6864] I do. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6865] to carpet. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6866] One, two, three |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6867] I mean ... the quotes we had ranged from sort of |
Alan (PS040) |
[6868] Well you,wo did you look to change the carpet |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6869] eighteen to twenty seven. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6870] ... because of the name on it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6871] Well ... yeah, and |
Alan (PS040) |
[6872] You are? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6873] and it's getting past it to be honest. [6874] I mean, these metal strips are down there for the public entertainment license, they weren't gonna give us it because the carpet was lifting. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6875] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6876] So ... I mean, not, weren't gonna give us it, but we had to do it for |
Alan (PS040) |
[6877] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6878] you know, at the time. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6879] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6880] And you can see like ... like there ... can you see straight in front of you there's a worn patch on the carpet, but there's er been a li a bit of a leak at some stage. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6881] Oh right, I see. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6882] There's one there. [6883] I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[6884] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6885] if you've got it carpeted, once you got that you, you're ... you're stuck aren't you? [6886] You know |
Alan (PS040) |
[6887] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6888] you've either got ... I mean, we've either gotta put a [laughing] table on top of it or [] |
Alan (PS040) |
[6889] Yeah, that's it, or sit on there or get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6890] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6891] somebody to stand with it |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Alan (PS040) |
[6892] you know. [6893] Yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6894] Erm ... or replace the whole damn carpet. [6895] I mean the carpet must have cost a fortune ... [...] ! |
Alan (PS040) |
[6896] Bloody hell! [6897] It must, it must have been absolute ... arm and a leg. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6898] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6899] Absolute arm and a leg. [6900] ... [sighing] Er [] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6901] But it ... it's not a bad size room in the sense that |
Alan (PS040) |
[6902] No it int, no, it's, it is |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6903] in the sense that you can get three hundred in |
Alan (PS040) |
[6904] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6905] well we often get four hundred in if you're ... you know, I mean, just have the right |
Alan (PS040) |
[6906] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6907] party ... erm |
Alan (PS040) |
[6908] How many you licensed for? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6909] Three hundred. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6910] Three. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6911] But, you can get ... but a hundred people can have a decent atmosphere as well. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6912] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6913] You know, it |
Alan (PS040) |
[6914] Well that, that's good you see |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6915] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6916] cos I mean some places that are fairly big ... th the, if you've got hundred in they just, it looks empty don't it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6917] No that's right. [6918] That's right. [6919] I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[6920] Erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6921] that's the Carlton's problem innit? [6922] You know, if it, unless it gets |
Alan (PS040) |
[6923] Ooh! [6924] God! [6925] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6926] unless he's got five hundred in yo yo you feel as if you're in a barn ... aircraft hanger. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6927] Well that's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6928] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6929] But the sort of chromea and all that sort of lends itself to one of them aircraft things doesn't |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6930] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6931] it? [6932] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6933] It does. [6934] It does, yeah. [6935] ... So you wouldn't have to spend a fortune on, on, on ... I mean it's only a matter of ... most of it's a matter of paint, and then hanging a few things up isn't it? [6936] Change the atmosphere. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6937] Well er, yeah well it is, but I think ... cos one, you've got to look at, oh a bit of a design as well a ... while you're at it you might as well just get one or two bits |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6938] Oh yeah. [6939] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6940] you know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6941] Yeah, yeah. [6942] True. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6943] Erm ... oh yeah. [6944] One, two ... it's alright, I'm trying to ... think. [6945] [laugh] ... if you're gonna ... make all this into a dance floor and all the rest of it what's the be a er er er ... benefit of having a stage? [6946] ... If all this is virtually gonna be ... it's virtually gonna be dance floor int it really? |
Alan (PS040) |
[6947] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6948] Well there is no benefit. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6949] Cos if you didn't have that it'd make this room more viable ... in as much as erm, the point of view of doing ... doing catering ... and, functions and all the rest of it. [6950] You can't, you couldn't ... say right we'll do a function for ... hundred and fifty and two hundred, and really to do, you've got to be looking to do a, a sit down function for two hundred |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6951] Right. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6952] if you, because ... it's more than the Headway can do |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6953] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6954] comfortably. [6955] And it's more than ... er, and you can certainly do a better job than the Carlton so ... I mean, you don't call, I mean, you don't call him any ... competition at all I don't ... but, you've got to look at being able to do functions for two hundred. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6956] Mm. [6957] Well two hundred is lost in the Carlton anyway int it? |
Alan (PS040) |
[6958] Well it is, but having, yeah but with their |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6959] Are you talking about the Carlton or the Carlton Rooms? |
Alan (PS040) |
[6960] I'm talking about the Carlton. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6961] Right. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6962] Not Chelstons. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6963] Not Chelstons, right. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6964] The Carlton up |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6965] Right. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6966] here. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6967] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6968] It, really and truthfully, like the Headway do plenty of functions and the rest of it ... but ... you can do a better job than Headway. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6969] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6970] No two ways about,wi it ... in a min in a [...] . [6971] But if you can do, if, if you can do a two hundred thing for sit down ... you're gonna be in among the functions. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6972] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6973] Definitely. [6974] Plus the fact like you sa er like I say, if you're gonna have a dance floor in here there int any benefit about having the raised area is there? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6975] No, that's very true. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6976] And er, and it, it ... it makes a lot of difference actually. [6977] I would have thought so. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6978] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6979] I mean, cos the bands can still set up can't they? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6980] Oh yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6981] If they sit up ... here |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6982] Well you can do what, yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6983] Yeah. [6984] But they still sit up there and they can still see them. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6985] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6986] And it's makes it a ... it makes it a different space, totally different. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6987] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6988] And like I say, if you're gonna carpet it ... er not carpet it, you're gonna cover it ... you might as well cover it ... totally. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6989] Oh yeah. [6990] Well |
Alan (PS040) |
[6991] I wonder what you'd use though? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6992] You ca you're gonna, you're gonna cover it, I mean we've got to re |
Alan (PS040) |
[6993] You've gotta cover that anyway. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6994] we've got to re-cover that |
Alan (PS040) |
[6995] That's what |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6996] stage anyway. |
Alan (PS040) |
[6997] So you're not ... so all you're |
Barry (PS03W) |
[6998] So |
Alan (PS040) |
[6999] doing is taking that out, but |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7000] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7001] surely in a lot of ways it might ... makes all the difference Barry. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7002] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7003] Makes it ... and it makes in a way [...] so that it, it's not a |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7004] Well you can create a dance floor area with tables and chairs. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7005] Yeah, course you can. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7006] All you do is just ... put them round there. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7007] Just put them round. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7008] I mean that's all we did in the Sugar House |
Alan (PS040) |
[7009] Well that's ... terrific! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7010] they've got er actual ... flat floors. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7011] Get rid of all that and you have got more table area because ... i they can sort of sit in th in the, the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7012] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7013] gangway |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7014] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7015] you know, so I think, I think that would ... it's alright I just keep freezing up. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7016] Do you wanna sit in there rather than |
Alan (PS040) |
[7017] No my, I'm better stood here. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7018] Oh. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7019] No I'm better stood here. [7020] But I've got to ... I do this you know, I just sit and look. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7021] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7022] Oh no, I don't stand a lot. |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Alan (PS040) |
[7023] Well that's ... but I've, I've got to er, so I think definitely that wants to come out. [7024] Erm ... and er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7025] Because, I mean, if you ever got anything you really need a little, you could always bring a little stage in. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7026] Well [...] ... Yeah. [7027] Staging's no problem is |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7028] No. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7029] it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7030] No. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7031] You know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7032] I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[7033] now we need erm ... alright we're gonna, we'll keep ... these mirrors and everything. [7034] Them mirror tiles and everything. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7035] I should think so. [7036] They cost us a fortune! |
Alan (PS040) |
[7037] Cos I mean them marked [...] . [7038] I nearly ca what they call it? [7039] Aren't they? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7040] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7041] Called the [...] . [7042] Er, it's just that re-seating that ... just on that middle one actually, that's bad int it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7043] Mm. [7044] Well I've,yo ... you need to redo the, the fixed seating. [7045] I mean, some of it o you'll get away with, but generally you re you need to recover it, it's going all over the place ... and it |
Alan (PS040) |
[7046] What if you could get something with stars and stripes on? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7047] Mm. [7048] Yes, but it's dirt ... on it. [7049] The trouble with the American red, it's a, it's, it's not a maroon it's a |
Alan (PS040) |
[7050] No, it's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7051] bright pillar box type |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[7052] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7053] red innit? |
Alan (PS040) |
[7054] Yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7055] You know it's |
Alan (PS040) |
[7056] Oh my God! [7057] You don't want to |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7058] So if anybody, if anybody spills anything on it or whatever |
Alan (PS040) |
[7059] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7060] it's gonna show like a [...] . |
Alan (PS040) |
[7061] Yeah. [7062] Well that's one's left, cos that one, well it's better than green when it's down isn't it? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7063] Mm. [7064] But I thi |
Alan (PS040) |
[7065] I know that sort of creates that atmosphere there but I think erm ... sorry! [7066] Go on. [7067] Get them lamps down, I think. [7068] Cos I mean,yo you can easily chop them off and put summat else smaller on can't you with lamps on? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7069] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7070] If you want to create that sort of an atmosphere. [7071] Are we ... there int a door is there from kitchen to there? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7072] Well it's |
Alan (PS040) |
[7073] There's just a hatch which is alright |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7074] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7075] because then ... well that'll just do service from there, but the only trouble about that is that [...] . [7076] Anyway, not to worry. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7077] Alright. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7078] Round again then. [7079] Nay problem. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7080] I mean, if you've got a function you haven't got that much of bar trade |
Alan (PS040) |
[7081] No, but |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7082] in the sense that |
Alan (PS040) |
[7083] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7084] being busy have you? |
Alan (PS040) |
[7085] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7086] You know. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7087] No. [7088] No. [7089] And is [...] erm ... yeah I think that'd make all the difference if that comes out. [7090] You can soon redo the D J's little er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7091] Oh yeah. [7092] No, I think you'd leave the D J's [...] |
Alan (PS040) |
[7093] Oh yeah, but I mean you can soon sort of make it so that it's er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7094] Oh yeah, well ... Jean keeps buying |

Barry (PS03W) |
[7166] Oh. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7167] I've never been interested in American stuff. [7168] Well Cajun stuff and all that I thought, and then there's them ... you can do some long kebabs and all that, that's why if we get one of them charcoal grills that you can ... pa shoo, shee shoo . [7169] You know, not er ... all easy. [7170] And, and if you're gonna do burgers we'll do ... proper burgers, you know ... not ... [...] . [7171] But you can do like, you can do vegetarian burgers and all sorts. [7172] So erm ... is that paper up there? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7173] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7174] Look erm ... could do with being [...] , having a doorway across back of here couldn't they? [7175] Oh! [7176] I don't know though ... bu er, opening and shutting doors don't appeal to me ... when you [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7177] No. [7178] No. [7179] True. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7180] Looks nice but |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7181] Yeah I mean this looks ... almost like a school ... but I mean |
Alan (PS040) |
[7182] Well, no, well, I thi but I think some, some ... you're better with two shelves really. [7183] In, in a way for for quick, quick |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7184] Well nowadays, nowadays everybody wants two drinks anyway don't |
Alan (PS040) |
[7185] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7186] they? [7187] I mean it's not like |
Alan (PS040) |
[7188] No, but, but |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7189] it used to be a |
Alan (PS040) |
[7190] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7191] everybody wanted warm [...] |
Alan (PS040) |
[7192] When you think about if you ... just ... serving two or three hundred [...] to keep opening and shutting bloody cupboard doors, erm, fridge doors, it's no good. [7193] Chill's best, I think anyway. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7194] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7195] So erm ... so, yeah, right, I've got ... oh! [...] |
Barry (PS03W) | [laugh] |
Alan (PS040) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7196] Yeah, I thi yeah I think you're right actually. [7197] You need to get rid of that and it's ... and create a dance floor |
Alan (PS040) |
[7198] Yeah, create |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7199] what, and what I'd do is I'd put a few more spots in |
Alan (PS040) |
[7200] Yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7201] no, those spots around |
Alan (PS040) |
[7202] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7203] there shining on the |
Alan (PS040) |
[7204] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7205] floor, put some round the back so |
Alan (PS040) |
[7206] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7207] you actually just use |
Alan (PS040) |
[7208] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7209] see, but I er, I think creative use of spotlights is better ... than, than specialized lighting effects, which A, cost a fortune, but B |
Alan (PS040) |
[7210] And you get out of |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7211] as soon as you've seen them they're out of date. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7212] Well that's it. [7213] That's right. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7214] Cos they're only effective one time, that's the first time you see them. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7215] [...] , yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7216] After that, it's |
Alan (PS040) |
[7217] And we don't want to fork, I mean, [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7218] No. [7219] No. [7220] So erm ... I mean you can just use coloured spots it in, I mean, those at the moment are just literally stage spots, all they are i are on, and on dim |
Alan (PS040) |
[7221] Oh right. [7222] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7223] then you can dim them up or whatever |
Alan (PS040) |
[7224] Yeah, I have them |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7225] but they can't flash |
Alan (PS040) |
[7226] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7227] so what we need is a small unit in there and, and, I mean, it's only ... two or three hundred quid ... er, and a few erm |
Alan (PS040) |
[7228] Most places where erm, you know they've got them in that, where you go to |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7229] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7230] you can pick stuff up for next to nowt. [7231] Just have it ready- made, say you want it for |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7232] Yeah. [7233] Well, marvellous! |
Alan (PS040) |
[7234] But I think er ... er ... yeah I think that's definite, take that out, it really, it really would make ... the difference to erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7235] Yeah it would, actually, thinking about it. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7236] Would, it'd make it ... it'd make it ... well, it'd just transform it, I mean, just no two ways about it, I think. [7237] You've got that erm ... what time's that chap coming, half past three? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7238] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7239] Well I think er ... is this, alright if I look in here or |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7240] Yeah, course. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7241] I'll just get my erm |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7242] Yeah, I mean i it's ... keep on walking round till you get familiar with it. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7243] Yeah, well that, I mean, I just, yeah, cos I need |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7244] In |
Alan (PS040) |
[7245] to |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7246] in there is ... staff toilets and your spirit store. |

Barry (PS03W) |
[7439] No messing! |
Alan (PS040) |
[7440] Right, depends what the ... and quite honestly, if you bring these down ... and make them a bit more romantic |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7441] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7442] you know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7443] God knows what they'll get up to! |

Barry (PS03W) |
[7449] Yeah. [7450] I, I think I ca I, once upon a time I did on the fixed seating for, for ... I think you could get about a hundred and twenty round |
Alan (PS040) |
[7451] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7452] there. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7453] O as it is? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7454] Yeah. [7455] As it is. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7456] Yeah. [7457] Packed out. [7458] ... [sighing] Er [] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7459] But you see the other thing, the other thing that er that's worth, when you've had the smaller dos, you know |
Alan (PS040) |
[7460] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7461] sort of even, even like sixty, eighty people ... you can lay one of these raised areas out as the big cold buffet area |
Alan (PS040) |
[7462] Oh the buffet, yeah. [7463] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7464] which kills a lot |
Alan (PS040) |
[7465] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7466] of space in the club. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7467] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7468] The only thing that worries me about taking that out is that you then create a massive ... empty space, if you have got |
Alan (PS040) |
[7469] No you don't. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7470] sixty, seventy people you have to then |
Alan (PS040) |
[7471] No you don't because what you do is, you do it down there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7472] Well |
Alan (PS040) |
[7473] And this is off |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7474] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7475] innit? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7476] Yeah. [7477] Then you go back and sit up there. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7478] That's it. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7479] Yeah. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7480] Yeah. [7481] You do it down there, and this is erm ... if you did it over there it would look absolutely dreadful! [7482] You do it down there, you set it up in the middle and you set it up really nice and cosy. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7483] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7484] And then er |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7485] We got a lot, we got a, quite a lot of these little blue tables so you could actually |
Alan (PS040) |
[7486] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7487] surround the dance floors |
Alan (PS040) |
[7488] Oh yes. [7489] No, no |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7490] but we |
Alan (PS040) |
[7491] messing. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7492] push, you know, push people into the dance floor so they're there anyway. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7493] Yeah, and you make a totally, you make a totally different erm ... it's, it ... in one sort of minor operation if you like, alright, minor to a |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7494] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7495] certain extent, you've totally transformed it Barry. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7496] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7497] And it, it |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7498] That's right. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7499] definitely looks so different. [7500] I mean, even if you didn't do anything else. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7501] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7502] But I think erm, you've just got to er, we've just got to er ... gerrit sorted. [7503] It, it, it int gonna take much sorting ... and get the ... you know |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7504] Mm. [7505] We could use that chrome railing around |
Alan (PS040) |
[7506] Well you co |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7507] area |
Alan (PS040) |
[7508] yeah you could use that chrome railing elsewhere, we could |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7509] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7510] you know. [7511] I don't think you, you've, you've got to try in a way not to shut it off ... too much ... erm ... and yet it,i you've just got to sort of be able to ... not shut it off but sort of create different areas |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7512] Mm. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7513] within one big area ... i i if you can and I think shutting things, I think putting trellising up to, not trellising but ... that sort of thing, to a certain extent at the minute ... we don't need and ... I think ... I'll have to come a time er too when it's open as well to get |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7514] Now,wha what I was just thinking of |
Alan (PS040) |
[7515] Yes. [7516] But it could be just on a Saturday and Sun |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7517] is it, if you, if you're using, if you're gonna use it as a pub as well |
Alan (PS040) |
[7518] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7519] on a Saturday and a Sunday |
Alan (PS040) |
[7520] Mm. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7521] which I think you can do with Amer certainly in the summer season ... if you Americanize it and all that and, and just, well I mean, we, we did |
Alan (PS040) |
[7522] You could have a glorious MacDonalds couldn't you? |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7523] Yeah. [7524] That's right. [7525] Then, you know ... you wanna start from that and build back out bits |
Alan (PS040) |
[7526] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7527] you know |
Alan (PS040) |
[7528] Definitely |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7529] cos I mean if they walked into here on stood on that bar hundred and twenty people |
Alan (PS040) |
[7530] Well actually you don't want them, you want them in here and bar's there. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7531] Well that's right. |
Alan (PS040) |
[7532] And that's the bar they use. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7533] Yeah. [7534] Yeah. [7535] That's right. |
Alan (PS040) |

[7541] of shutter it off in some |
Alan (PS040) |
[7542] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7543] way. [7544] I mean maybe |
Alan (PS040) |
[7545] Well I think |
Barry (PS03W) |
[7546] maybe even getting ... literally shutters rather than those grills. [7547] And then you can |
Alan (PS040) |
[7548] No, I think, I think, I think |

Alan (PS040) |
[7827] No, she's been getting enough of that. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Hugh (PS03Y) | [laugh] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8516] Oh I, I remember that, I didn't watch it, I refused to watch it. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8517] I mean that's actually going in for Keagan! |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8523] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8524] really [...] |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8525] Exactly. [8526] That's why it was, [...] cos he's |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8527] not the best footballer. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8528] you know, dedicated to his club and all this |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8529] Yeah. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |

[8538] Hamburg. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8539] Hamburg, then ... you know,so ... being a big fish in a small pond at Southampton ... and then |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8540] But |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8541] last couple of years a quick ... I mean, his contract with Newcastle worth, worth a fortune wasn't it? [8542] Cos it was one of those first ones that was sponsored by |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8543] Who was |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8544] the |
Hugh (PS03Y) |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8552] No, no. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8554] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8555] like the car phone company did with |
Hugh (PS03Y) |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8560] grafted. |
Barry (PS03W) |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8576] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8577] he's probably one of |

Barry (PS03W) |
[8723] Yeah. [8724] ... Oh yeah, I mean, they're gonna have to be from now on cos we're not gonna be, you know, we're gonna be ... responsible to |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8725] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8726] somebody else, not just ourselves, you know. [8727] Okay, if we wa if we want to turn a blind eye to it then that's our business you know ... but er ... but when you're, when you're actually erm |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8728] Answerable to someone else. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8729] Yeah. [8730] Present accounts to somebody else you can't do it like that can you? [8731] You know water's looking disgusting! [8732] ... What other results were there last night? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8733] Er ... Forest |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8734] The |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8735] won four two. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8736] Oh did they? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8737] Doing really well. [8738] [...] . ... Liverpool drew one each with Bristol Rovers. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8739] That don't sound right. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8740] I've seen it, seen that one ... I've seen that match ... they were lucky. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8741] Sunderland ... won, who were they playing? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8742] Sunderland won. [8743] Er ... Oxford I think. [8744] They were winning three nil ... three two at the end of it. [8745] Oxford scored one on the end [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8746] Not many first division teams left is there? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8747] Nine. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8748] About ... nine is there? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8749] Wrexham were unlucky against Blackburn. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8750] Oh! [8751] Weren't they? [8752] Didn't they play well? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8753] Yes! [8754] They've always been a |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8755] I thought they played |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8756] good club side ... Wrexham. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8757] Yeah, they have but I mean, they got a lot of good skilful young lads haven't they? [8758] They're only like nineteen and twenty |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8759] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8760] and ... I mean that young fullback looked brilliant! [8761] That lef |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8762] Yeah. [8763] Mm mm. [8764] Quite good. [8765] Composed as well like. [8766] Talented. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8767] Yeah. [8768] ... It's a funny law that er ... clear chance at goal job innit? [8769] I mean it's a ... funny definition. [8770] ... I must admit I, I ... if you could stop that deliberate foul it's ... I mean it's better for the game if you can stop it. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8771] Send them off. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8772] Yeah. [8773] Yeah. [8774] That's right. [8775] I mean if you're gonna do it |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8776] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8777] do it, do it, do it |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8778] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8779] consistently. [8780] ... Cos, actually, the other thing about defenders hauling people down like that, you know, how many times when a forward's through one on one on a goal keeper does he score? [8781] It's not that often actually. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8782] No. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8783] I mean, okay, somebody like Besty |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8784] Thing you want |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8785] you could bet on |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8786] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8787] nine times out of ten, but |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8788] But even, even against the goalkeeper they fucking lose fifty percent of the, like |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8789] Yeah. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8790] I was saying ... more than fifty percent of the playing |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8791] Yeah, I would, yeah. [8792] Yeah. [8793] Yeah. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8794] And that's all just ... one on one on the goalkeeper. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8795] Yeah. [8796] ... Well that's what I mean, I mean, you know,th th the player could let him, could let him go really without deliberately fouling him because ... it's, it's gonna |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8797] Half the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8798] be at least a fifty fifty |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8799] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8800] chance that the goalkeeper's gonna save it innit? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8801] It's fucking gotta be straight like that, I, I, I don't fucking ... taking off three points for a [...] ... [...] . [8802] At the start it seemed to improve the matches but it, they've just become too hectic now I think. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8803] Mm. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8804] You know, there's not as much skill involved as there was. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8805] No. [8806] No, that's right. [8807] It's |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8808] Like the |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8809] incredibly passed. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8810] the first, the first season like the football did seem to improve but it's not |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8811] That's right. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8812] gonna go back now I think. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8813] United have got a strange side at the moment though |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8814] Oh yes. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8815] I mean I don't think you can ... it's alright having all these players but if you ... he doesn't seem |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8816] They don't play. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8817] he doesn't seem to |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8818] They |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8819] have an idea of what he wants. [8820] Cos I mean |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8821] No they don't. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8822] every week he's got a different sort of format. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8823] Well what's he supposed to do? [8824] [...] Giggs, Semen [...] . |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8825] Well he had him |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8826] Well I think he's gotta look at, and the team should be in with you |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8827] Yeah. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8828] like. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8829] He had him playing yesterday, er, but they dropped Hughes. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8830] [laughing] Yeah I know [] . [8831] Well you don't drop Hughes for anybody! |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8832] And his two subs, Hughes and Sharp, I mean it does rather hamstring |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8833] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8834] you if anything happens to a central defender dunnit? |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8835] Yeah. [8836] Well I don't think Hughes should ever be sub like, he should be on the team. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8837] Well that's right, even if he's not scoring goals he's creating so much pressure and, and |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8838] Yeah, he always done like. [8839] Good in defence as well. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8840] Yeah. [8841] That's right. [8842] Well he's also summat, er I mean he's, he's one of the best ... at holding a ball ... you know |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8843] Fantastic shielding the ball |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8844] on his own. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8845] Yeah. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8846] Yeah. |

Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8859] No. [8860] I remember seeing, but I heard fucking result on News at Ten. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8861] It was a long |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8862] I know. |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8863] it was a ... it was full pass inside to two fullbacks ... er, for the ... Southampton player that was running on ... this fullback shaded it away ... you know, guiding him out of it, he's running to the e ... sa Smeichel came out to the edge of the area ... but he was like right on the edge ... as the player was coming to him, so he just let it roll a little bit further, he stopped it with his foot, the guy came and tackled him off ... got it ... instead of just picking it up with his hand, I mean he was actually in the area but like ... he was right on the edge and he took a step back |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8864] Why the fuck didn't he [...] |
Barry (PS03W) |
[8865] and stopped it with his foot. [8866] Yeah. |
Hugh (PS03Y) |
[8867] wait for the ball coming in? [8868] ... I tell you Liverpool were really lucky cos er ... Bristol Rovers had got a penalty. |
Barry (PS03W) |
