That's one thing I like about the white. It's nothing fancy beer-wise but it's a decent boozer like that.

Haha - I was talking to my friend today about this and he mentioned it had been posted on here.

Yes, 'twas me. Tattoos, shaved head white shirt and you with yellow headscarf right?

No problem. It was a pleasure rather than a chore, and just the decent thing to do.

The White Lion is a decent pub with decent regulars and if it hadn't been me then one of the other reprobates would've chased you down the road with it! Get me a half next time you're in :hihi:

Well done shipman! It's lovely to read something 'nice' for a change! You deserve all the credit your getting matey!:clap: - Not everyone would have been so honest as we know. :thumbsup:

obviously, i did. i will resist posting a rolling eyes smiley, satman ;)

however i felt that whoever this was deserved a public thankyou; there are so many threads comprised of people complaining about one thing or another, and negative stuff, that i thought it would be heartwarming to read of something so noble.

tbh i didn't notice the tatts and shaved head, i just noticed how fast you were sprinting down the road! :) :clap:


No problem. It was a pleasure rather than a chore, and just the decent thing to do.

i'm really grateful shipman, and thankyou again. so many people wouldn't have done what you did.

Kind of off topic - but I was in the Duty-Free shop in Almeria airport when the customer infront of me left their Credit Card by the counter, so after I got served I took it her back.

Go me! :D

Did you give him any reward for his effort at the time - i'm sure he'd have appreciated the price of a pint.

Sorry, just read the rest of the post, well done to all involved. I'm not sure about the 'Hero' status though, its just when any decent person would do.
