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.

The beer is nice but the landlady is a real right harridan! Oh, she's alright. Rather fond of her, actually 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.

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.
