The Junction is still a beacon in a sea of s[ih[/iite-ness to be honest.

very good - the ring o bells sounds er interesting.

Used to be a cracking night as you say, last bus would be packed, lots of students..I walked home from Otley more times than is sensible. The locals could be a bit revolting, but having gone to school with most of them i seemed to get away with it, but i did see a few blood baths over the years.

I thought you'd be a diamond white man.

have you ever done the folk Festival? If yes do the pubs change?

I did the Duck n Drake Saturday night and it was packed but i think that was more to do with the band who was playing rather than anything else.

No I haven't done the folk festival, we go into Otley about once a month and frankly anything away from The Junction and The Bay Horse is chav central, small town chavs at that.
