Its Happy Hour Again!!
Sat out in the garden on a glorious Friday afternoon sipping a cold beer (when I should in fact be cutting the grass), my mind turns to great Friday happy hours I’ve known.
In no particular order then here are 3 of my favourites.
Belize mid 80s. A few Rum & Cokes in the mess then the bus down to BC. Start at the civilised bars around the Chateau Caribbean and the Fort George then on to the Upstairs Café, the Pub and many others that I’ve simply forgotten. Taxi back with the optional stop at Rauls Rose Garden….but lets not go there.
Gatow late 80s. SU bar, NAAFI, bus to city centre, Irish Bar, Klo’s, Stuckgarter Platz (Starlight anyone?) then back to the block to find cellar bar still in full swing – awesome.
MPA 95, 97, 99, 00, 02, OK I’ll stop now. Nowhere better for Friday evening beer calls. Movers Bar and SMC were always good starting points followed by Queen Vic and so on. Waiting for a lift across the airfield could be a bit chilly in the winter though.
Nostalga – its not what it used to be.
I’ll get me coat.
