Mulberry tavern, I used to work next door at Walsh's so it was a bit too handy! One of the lads from Walsh's went to run it for a while - Brian Titterton(?) anybody any idea what happened to him? Also while on the subject there was a busy little corner pub on a back street behind PCL at the bottom of Arundel gate, anybody remember its name and does it still exist?

As I went in all of those places except Josies I may have met you both but have never spoken to you.

I worked behind the bar the night the Mulberry opened November 6th 1976, same night as Josephines opened.

 

Bomber Graham worked there later, great times. Mick Lee was the Manager.

How far down is the PCL? The only ones I can think of down the Moor is the Pump Tavern? I used to go in the Mulberry 1978 onwards and run accross the road and climb over the barriers in a tight skirt and winkle pickers to go the Claymore and then on to Steelys - happy days
