The Boot in Liscard had this service in their back room.They also had an off licence that sold draught beer to take out.You could get it in glass gallon demi-johns,half a crown deposit and less than ten bob for the beer!Those were the days,'60s obviously.

Oh, she's alright. Rather fond of her, actually happy
By the way, the Stork has a happy hour from 4 to 7 where the ale is 1.75 a pint. Good for a pint or two after work.

There may have been different colours for the type of "service" you required?

The red lights where outside, blue above the tables.


God help us,
Come yourself,
Don't send Jesus,
This is no place for children.

We used to go to the Egremont Ferry in the late 70's / early 80's and they had a bell service there, and the best pint of Higsons bitter you ever tasted.
