Oh Karen, lets name and shame!!! Its the Tavern on the Hill at the top of my road in Walthamstow. It was the first one featured on the first show. Talk about 'spit and sawdust' - and just don't look anyone in the eye!! Maz. XX

my father has owned a few and many atime we have had to deal with trouble.when he owned the egmont in midhurst west sussex .he was threatened with his life .me and my step sister managed to get out of the pub to call the police and were followed by some of the cronnies.when we came back one came up to me and threatened me aswell because i called the police.they liked to think that they ran the pub and when my father tryed to restore order that is what they didn't likexxx(:
