Old Spot Poem

The Old Spot By Yasmin Curtis
The middle of town's not the place you would think To find rare breed of pig, black spotted on pink And where dogs share with people a comforting drink The Dursley 'Old Spot'. Past the beams wreathed in hops and the pumps for draught beer Into welcoming corners with warm atmosphere Where stressful. pace slows to embrace yesteryear Down the 'Old Spot'. The intimate nook where a farrowing sow Would give birth to her piglets and to them endow A different brew to the one that's served now Down the 'Old Spot'. Where songs of Olde Englande emerge from the past To blend the low chatter and clinking of glass To a mellowness seasoned by harvests and grass Down the 'Old Spot'. The middle of town is the place you will find A breath of timespast, so prepare to unwind In an ambience of the traditional kind: The Dursley 'Old Spot'.

The Old Spot Prayer

Old Spot Inn By Ric Sainty. Feb 1999
Our Beer, Which art in Barrels, Hallowed be thy drunk. I will be drunk, At home as it is in the Local. Forgive us this day, our daily spillage, As we forgive those who spillest against us. And lead us not into the practice of poncy wine tasting, And deliver us from Alco-Pops. For mine is the Bitter, The Ale and the Lager, Forever and Ever, Barmen.



The Old Spot 'Guard' Dog! By Irene Skelton. 2003
Little Jack Westie at the Old Spot You are so friendly, we like you a lot Sat in the window or out in the Bar We can't wait for Tuesdays to see how you are A snack from Barbara and one from Irene A saucer of milk; how you wish it was cream A stroke and a cuddle, a kiss and a tickle Then off to the bar, my Word! You are fickle We love you Jack Spot, you're our little chum That's enough praise! Oooh away wi ye wee laddie Back to your Mum!
