RichardB Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 Richard B Have you got enough pub names . going through the list l see there are lots more if you want them Depends on the year; old Pubs I'll take, modern Pubs (1950's onwards), I have some lists - apathy is holding me back - so Old, Yes, New don't put yourself out ... if you have the stuff anyway then send. I'll qualify that, if it has a Pub name, Date and Keeper then I'd be delighted to accept it, with Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheff6 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Bell, Market Street/Fitzalan Square, Ernest Evans (Chubby Checker's real name) I never made the connection, until someone told me (and then it was so obvious), that Chubby Checker idolised Fats Domino, so he named himself after his all time hero:- Fats (Chubby) Domino (Checker). Just think, you'll be thankful to me one day when it comes down to that gripping tie-break question at the Dog and Duck (or wherever), at some time in the futiure.....
