BarredI've only ever been barred from one pub, the "Fort St George in England" on Midsummer Common in Cambridge.*
I was part of a group caught drunkenly trying to add our names in biro to a historic signed cricket bat. I still have the pint glass I was holding as I was chucked out.
Where have you been banned from?
*All pubs in Cambridge have posh names like this. 25% fact

Barred, you say?After three years at music college and two years working at the Duke of Devonshire's country retreat, recounting tales and singing merry catches, I was finally able to bring my studies to culmination.
We celebrated by attending a nearby hostelry, where we quaffed much porter. The serving girl unfortunately took umbrage at my skillful serialist re-interpretation of "O What a Lovely Pair of Wabs You Have, Susan Shagg" (the highlight of my graduation recital earlier that day), and I was escorted from the building by two burly men-at-arms.
I was informed in no uncertain terms that I was barred, and I said "yes, how did you know?"
I was kicked half to death for such appalling punning, and deserved every steel toe-capped blow, if you ask me.
