I like the kind where someone plays elegant songs from the past. Okay, hate was too strong a word. I like that at Christmas when everyone sings Christmas songs. But a loud room full of people singing "Sweet Caroline?" I'd probably leave.geewitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11590044820333720010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16041225.post-53543133169689299482007-10-16T18:46:00.000-05:002007-10-16T18:46:00.000-05:00Great photo!

And, all I could think was, I have actually been to that pub.
