I never had trouble knowing where to go in my 40+ years at sea!.. But bless the mission to seaman and aggies.. Over the years I think that I must have visited a fair amount of the worlds dirty bars and dives.. lol
Haha! Entertain his friends over a tea or coffee in Aggies! (Or better still, sod off up Navy Row, sorry, Albert Road and go on the piss in the pubs!).
Let's see... Getting slaughtered with a tasty bird in a pub on Union Street or quaffing a cup of luke warm pussers coffee at a formica table with a pushy RSR minister at Aggie's... choices choices. That said, the rather tame scenes portrayed in this wonderful film were far removed from the activities I witnessed in Aggies bar in the early 1970's when I was an occasional visitor. For all of that, God bless Agnes Weston. She really did so much for countless Bootnecks and Matelots over the years. As is mentioned in the film, she really did "cater to the spiritual' refreshment of Naval personnel" but perhaps not always in the way she intended.
FANTASTIC. THANK YOU.
