Even if you have never visited the Walnut Tree Shades pub, you will be encaptured with the stories, problems and trials and tribulations of a publican running a bar and restaurant. You will be able to imagine the characters who frequented the bar, you will feel you are actually there having a drink or a meal, especially as it has been written as if I am chatting to you. The book will make you laugh, be shocked and horrified of events which occured and by the end you will know what it's truly like to run a pub. You will come across some 'colourful' language,' but I told it exactly how it was.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From 1984, for 25 years, Chris (known as 'the grumpy old git behind the bar') and Jude (as 'the skinny bird in the restaurant') ran The Walnut Tree Shades - a busy city centre pub in Norwich.
Everybody has spent time socialising in a pub, but what's it really like for the publican?
From opening to closing time, there was always a story about the customers and the staff, and the problems encountered each and every day.
It tells the true account (warts an' all) and captures the true atmosphere of life in a pub.
"This book has been written as if Jude is there with you, sitting and chatting and rambling on about life as publicans."
Amusing - Fascinating - Shocking.
