Jim Hardie Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 You may well have served me and my pal, then! We used to go a couple of times a week for a "Shanty Brunch" - sort of a square fishcakey-thing and chips! This was probably just after we turned decimal in '71 : I could be totally wrong, but 46p seems to ring a bell?! I don't think it would have cost as much as that in 1971. A pint of beer was about 10p when we went decimal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was 4/6, and pre-decimal! I was in London the day we went decimal, and even after all those 5-minute TV tuition jobs for months before, people were still confused! I joined a queue at the Gloucester Road tube station kiosk to grab some of my usual ciggies, and found the seller was trying to sell 'em at double the price! ---------- Post added 22-12-2015 at 20:07 ---------- I bet I will have served you and your pal it was cheap and always packed. The one I remember was a small, dark-haired lass - she was really lovely! If I hadn't been spoken for at the time....well....who knows?! Could've been free Shanty Brunches for life!
