The start
It was the local pub, where me and my mates would meet up most nights after our dinner . It was the usual spit and sawdust local , with the same crowd you would get in every town around the uk .
Most were working class , with the local lads and a few students rolled in once a week .There was a couple of shirkers who never worked but always had enough to get in the pub each night and you had the odd pensioner , a few Middle Aged couples too.
The pub had a lounge , no swearing or workmen allowed in dirty clothing . The bar for most of the regulars and a games room.
This had the jukebox , pool table , darts and a "skittles table"
That's our room , the lads room .
The landlord was shrewd too, he had a pool team , darts , skittles ,cards and the odd quiz night . There was a local football team too . So for a backstreet pub it had so thing going on most nights.
We played pool on Mondays in the town league . Tues was card night , wed skittles and thur darts . Fri and sat we all ( the lads) all went to town on the pull . Sun was a great dinner time session . Then dinner and back in at 7 for evening session .
Back then the pubs had opening times .
I and a few of the lads were single . So we all tried pulling anyone that walked in . Or the barmaid . Or a few of the students that made the mistake of entering g the bar instead of the lounge .
Every week after a good day the landlord would have the odd lock-in.
So he and his card school and us lads who spent our hard earned were the usual bunch . With the odd group who he allowed to stay .
That's where I first met Brandy .she looked early twenties but I found out it was actually thirty one . She was tarted up . Probably too much make up . Madonna late 80 s look .Big hair and red lippy. She was about 5:2 . 36 c and wore a blouse , stockings and heels .
She knew a bit more about me than I knew about her , and made it crystal clear I had no chance .
Well I like a challenge so I persevered and the lads were sniggering and laughing at my failed attempts at pulling her .
When they left I joined the lads and ended up having a wager that I would get in her knickers within the next month .
I was mugged as the lads who I bet with knew that she was going out with someone and they had two kids . They also said she always flirted and teased but no one had managed to pull her .
So I had to up my game . As a sex starved 19 year old lad with a bet to win . I always popped into the lounge to see if she was in before joining the lads in the games room .
One we'd evening I popped in the lounge and Brandy was sitting in the lounge sipping half a lager . I grabbed a pint and sat at her table .
The lounge was dimly lit . With about eight or nine people dotted about .
She had been stood up at the last minute , by her sister . I thought could be the night . We chatted away and I tried charming her . Using a few corny one-liners, soon her mood changed and after a few more drinks we were getting to know each other better .
At last orders she upped and left me sitting on my own . Wtf I thought . She's playing hard to get . .............
