[Archived] Most Bizarre Pub In East Lancs?

[MCMC1875]

The Shoulder Of Mutton at the top of Fielding Lane, Oswaldtwistle gets my vote.

It has a resident cockateel and fine views over the moors.

Go and see for yourself, but be quick - there's a For Sale sign outside.

Be a curry house in no time.

My dad used to go to a pub in Bedfordshire called The Cross Keys, and that had a pet Llama that used to occaisionally spit at drunks, as well as a few sheep it used to beat up.

Here we go another debate on uncultured and violent immigrants.

I don't think Larry the Llama played for Argentina at all, but it had the right character to be a midfielder for them.

I hear it's closing this Thursday, with the locals already claiming their own memorabilia.

The best way to prevent spitting is to turn the barbeque down .......

(I'd best not say any more about the origin of that joke ) :ph34r:

What about the Cross Keys in Clitheroe - the toilets were wallpapered floor to ceiling with porn.

yeah, i seem to remember that pub!

[Ozz]

The Weird Arms-the toilet door handle was fitted on the wrong side so the first time you went to open it you ended up banging your head on the door. Hilarious!

My parents accidently ended up in some pub in New Zealand that had pairs of women's underwear stuck to the walls of the pub. The locals a bit weird as well apparently.

The worst pub I have ever been to was called The Commercial Tavern in Bedford. My parents, myself, and my uncle David went to an Italian restaraunt to celebrate my mums birthday, and we had a pleasant time. So we thought, we'd have a quick drink and then home. Big mistake. It was basically a terraced house where the front room had a bar put in with some shelves to hold whatever spirits the owner had recently shoplifted. So we all walk in, and noticed this 'makeshift' nature. We also noticed the silence when we came in. It was like one of those westerns. Anyway, my dad goes up to the bar and gets our drinks and sits us down out of the way. Only, he couldn't join usas a huge drunk Asian bloke starts talking to him, and he wasn't the sort you could just say 'Ok then' and politely leave. It turns out he was alternately chatting my dad up and threatening to knock his teeth out. Needless to say we only stayed for one drink.

The Atlantic Pub on Highfield Road/Mosley Street, during one change of hands, the pool room was turned into some sort of reptile house!
