Late evening visit across midnight. Overflowing when other pubs in the area have closed for the night or just ticking by. Lessons to be learnt - - I expect not.

Late evening visit until close accompanied by several Swansea Welsh émigrés from The River Ale House. Pumpclip display all a mess, some half turned round, some showing but beer not available when we asked. Easy to sort with thought and care.
