The Black Boy, Sidcup

This blog is in reply to vinneys message 04th Jan 2009. I deeply sympathize with your son as to have something so drastic happen must be not only painful but emotionally and physically scarring. But I must say that I have been a local in the Black Boy for many years and have not heard of any such a thing happening . Someone getting their ear bitten off would usually spark gossip and I have never heard of such an event happening in the Black Boy, Sidcup.

The Black Boy is itself a pub for �Locals� but people from all around are always made welcome. We have great diversity and a mixture of people from all races and religions who all get on like family.

The new land lady �June� is a pleasure to drink with and bar lady �Gene� is always smiling when pouring you a pint. You feel welcome when drinking in the Black Boy and for those who think otherwise, just try and say hello to someone sometime. You will always be greeted with a smile and a reply and maybe also a challenge on the pool table from one of our very competent locals.

We go to the Black Boy so we can relax in peace and stray from the misses nagging, I also ensure all that read this that having my ear bitten off is not my idea of peace and quiet.

So to all that read this, please pop down for a pint and a game of pool sometime. I bid you a good evening.

And no they do not serve food, June prepares rolls which are on sale for �1.00 and the usual selection of crisps and nuts are of course available.

And one final message to our dear friend and local �Paul Tats�, we all miss you and wish you a speedy recovery. The takings are down sice you left and we have had to let 2 bar staff go� :0p

Regards

Mart
