    I believe it. There once was a time, that may or may not be a memory, where the bartender would serve you if you could walk up to the bar and order. You also needed money, but a bit of bartering with scrounged flotsam from the quay could cover costs.

      It’s also where all social life happened. I got my first job working for a bricklayer at the pub when I was 15.
