Happy days...... I think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fazman1977 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Is Spinky's gone now? Aye, it's a bathroom shop now. The Railway Tavern's long gone as well; was turned into flats a good few years ago now. Perth is pretty shite for pubs now. The Sandeman, Sportsters etc have ripped the soul away from the wee pubs. But then you just have to look at how mobbed The Royal is to show that the smaller pubs with decent service and a decent banter are what folk want. Not some **** off cathedral sized place that serves Thai fishcakes and chinese lager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
