I went to work in Moon Brothers on the same road as the graving Dock in the mid 80's and used to go in there every lunch hour (only actually had half an hour for lunch) but I would have 2 pints, game of pool, and a chip butty for (I think 30p)friendly atmosphere and I know the guy who ran it then was called Ted and his family were all involved it was great...anybody know what happened to Ted and family etc.
