Dear Drinker,
Whether you drink larger, bitter, cider, spirits or good old soft drinks (or maybe your one of those people who go to a pub and ask for a coffee or tea when there is a perfectly good coffee shop just next door) you are more than likely to of entered the drunken world of a pub.
Drinkers fall into 3 catagories:
1. The Invisibles. These are the ones who like to try and remain invisible to others around them by sitting in the one dark area of the pub reading the newspaper and nursing a pint for as long as possible before they have to make the trek back to the bar without anyone noticing them.
2. The Regulars. These ones regularly turn up at the pub (generally like clockwork) have a bit of banter with The Locals (see number 3 for more information), claim they are not big drinkers whilst necking at least 3 pints before their 1 hour lunch break is over and then merrily skip on their way.
3.The Locals. These ones are the most interesting of the 3. They generally are the ones waiting outside the pub trying to look inconspicious to others before opening hours. They regard the pub as their second home (sometimes even their first home). No barstaff or management can make a decision about the pub before consulting with The Locals. This may include what colour napkins to have or what airfresher to use in the toilets. Some readily admit they like a drink (or 10) whilst there are others who deny the fact they are regulary drunk.
All 3 types of customers come into my pub on a daily basis. As times goes on you get to know the ins and outs of these people and what makes them tick, and so will you.
Love The Barmaid xx
