i used to go to school with jason hendry,i think his old man was the big cheese around cov in the 80s (number plate COV 1)
you know of him? |

By:
Chavman, I'm Highgate based nowadays, Cov is a ghost town but the younger generation are different and don't need the clubs and just pop over to Brum to go clubbing. There just is no work worth having, the average wage is about £20k, too much temping and zero hours work. There is till passion and a yearning for some collective solidarity (52,000 to Wembley recently) and many have got behind the Wasps. The social side has died a death, the WMCs dying like many of the boozers with whole communities ie Henley Green , Wood End and Potters Green not having a Public House the length of Henley Rd and Woodway Lane around 8 square miles)

apparently Lord Mayor gets 1 COV cos the other fella will never let it go. Fair play to him.

he was never THE big cheese, he didn't get involved in all the villainy as such,the city has never been run by one man or one family. Too many manors, all possessive of their own turf and no firm big enough to rule or unite the manors. It always was a rough old place and it still is, for a big city there just isn't any dough there.

shane magowan owns the bougaloo just along from the tube station i believe |
|
By:
don't think he owns it now,its ok on Friday/Sat night for drink and dance til 2. No need for Doormen imo, the gaffer Gerry is a miserable client but I suppose he can afford to be but I'm led to believe it isn't McGowans now. Doesn't mean it isn't. I stick to Angel, Wrestlers and old faithful TOC. If I fancy a guinness I do the Red Cap down in Archway, tbh I'm trying to cut back on alcohol.

don't worry I couldn't buy one here, I'm renting for now but its a nice chilled place and really is a village in the midst of the smoke. Its full of terribly terribly nice people, even the dogs are mates and friendly with one another, they seem to know not to rock the boat whether in Waterlow Park or Parliament Hill Fields running around off their leads, so they sniff and play contentedly while their owners chat away amicably.
