| THE CROWN CHICKENLEY |
| WELL WHAT CAN I SAY, I THINK WE WENT INTO TTHE WRONG PUB. THE SIGN ABOVE THE DOOR SHOULD HAVE READ, WELCOME TO R.A.F. CHICKENLEY R.A.F. MEANING ROUGH AS F**K OF COURSE MOST OF THE REGULARS WERE THEIR USUAL SELVES, THROWING THE ODD EXPLETIVE AROUND THE PLACE, BUT THEN WE MET THE OTHER REGULARS WHO WERE JUST ANNOYING AS HELL. ONE BLOKE INSISTED ON INFORMING US THAT HE COULD PLAY THE DRUMS, BUT WHEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO, HE SHOWED US WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO GO INTO A PRIMARY SCHOOL AND LET THE 6 YEAR OLDS HAVE A GO. WHOEVER TOLD THAT MAN HE COULD PLAY WANTS HIS EARS TESTING, UNLESS HE WAS DEAF OF COURSE AND THEN HE MAY BE FORGIVEN. ANYWAY, AFTER THE LADS WERE GIVEN A CHANCE TO GET TO GRIPS WITH THEIR INSTRUMENTS, THE MUSIC WENT WELL. THIS WAS ONLY THEIR 2ND GIG WITH THEIR NEW GUITARIST MICK AND TO SAY THEY ONLY HAD A SHORT TIME TO REHERSE, AND NO TIME BETWEEN THIS GIG AND KETTLETHORPE, THE LADS DID REALLY WELL. STANNY EVEN KEPT OFF THE BOOZE, WHICH BROUGHT OUT THE RIGHT NOTES, AND THOSE THAT HE NEVER KNEW EXISTED. KEN MOVED SLIGHTLY DURING A COUPLE OF SONGS, BUT THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT HAD TO BE KENNYS RENDITION OF SUBSTITUTE, WHICH GOES A WHOLE LOT DIFFERENT TO THE ORIGINAL. CHUBBY BROWN ONCE QUOTED A FAMOUS PHRASE DURING ONE OF HIS STAND UP ROUTINES WHICH SPRUNG TO MIND DURING THE SONG, IN TIME WITH THE MUSIC, YOU SILLY BASTARD APART FROM THAT, THE NIGHT PASSED ON WITHOUT MUCH MORE INCIDENT, BUT THE BOYS HAD TO MAKE A QUICK EXIT WHEN THE FAMOUS MICHELLE NEARLY STARTED SCRAPPING WITH A LAD THAT HAD JUST SPILT HER PINT, YES PINT, YOU HEARD ME CORRECTLY, ALTHOUGH WITH THE SIZE OF HER GOB, THE OBJECT SHE SHOULD BE DRINKING FROM IS A BARREL.!!!!!!!!!!!! SEE YA AT THE MARTINS NEST |
