The Slug and Lettuce, Fulham

Firstly, it should be noted that The Barons ran this gaff from '93 to '98 with the occasional help from assorted & inferior forces such as the RWL, Ed and the og Lads and, of course, the so-called Men of Pyke. This period is also known as the Glory Years by some expert historians. In a previous life this was a Chelsea ruck pub but the arrival of Boss Man Mick quickly turned things around as he developed possibly the Worlds leading example of a fun pub. The first ever visit procured a couple of Kiwi strikes, and after that the entire global clientele were all considered fair game. Aussies, Kiwis, Saffas and improbably entitled Scandinavians were the usual fare with the occasional Brazilian, Septic or Eskimo (I kid you not) joker. Arriving inebriated on a blend of cheap Martinis and grinding out a few tours of duty inevitably procured points of an evening. Special mention should go to the cast of supporting characters - Jamie (aka Clap) the Barman, Chelsea, Minna's mate and of course Roses. Andi and Tim distinguished themselves in both receiving bans during this period and nights for them were spend quietly await our arrival, avec birds, in the Music Club. Celebrities attempted to jump on the band wagon but were always send packing, including the entire Oz cricket team who were trounced in a manner Mick Atherton could only dream of at the time. Ross Kemp meanwhile is possibly the only man alive, bar Steve Moody, who has failed to get a result in this establishment.
