This is a question Pubs

Jeccy writes, "I've seen people having four-somes, fights involving spastics and genuine retarded people doing karaoke, all thanks to the invention of the common pub."

What's happened in your local then?

Snake in a pub
In the early eighties whilst down in Plymouth visiting his folks, my Dad had popped off to the pub- most likely to avoid having to read yet another Thomas the tank engine story to me. The pub was a singularly unremarkable affair populated with a mix of civilians and Royal Navy.

On this evening, proceedings were being unexpectedly livened up by a shabby looking man in trenchcoat moving from table to table, whipping out a live snake and watching the reaction of the patrons. This curious form of entertainment was going relatively well until he sidled up to a table with two marines having a quiet chat.

The shabby snake handler thrust the reptile at the two gents as he'd done at the other tables. Alas, there was to be no recoiling here as one of the marines leaned forward and bit the snake's head off. He then extracted the head of the snake from his mouth and placed it in the shell shocked handler's pocket before resuming his conversation. Protests from the handler that the snake was expensive fell on unsympathetic ears and he left with his snake in kit form shortly after.

Length? About three feet long and an inch across.

That poor snake....
I can`t help but feel that the snake got the crap end of the deal in this story!

Trained killers eh? Can`t take them anywhere!

I have so many things i'd like to write here but they all sound like direct quotes from 'Are you being served' so i won`t.
