Bar Room Scrawl is a selection of poems inspired by thoughts, scribbles, rambles and people from my local pub The Starting Gate in Penn Fields, Wolverhampton.
The Gate, as locals call it, only opened its doors in 2018.
Despite the effect of the Covid 19 pandemic it survived as a home for many. It reminds me of the warm Miners Welfare clubs I once knew in Barnsley and the dominoes bars in Burton upon Trent. Small, friendly and welcoming. No fruit machines, no TV and no juke box. Just people, laughter and chatter, and a pub quiz once a month!
It's an oasis, a community centre, a place to meet friends and drink beer while creativity springs eternal.
Feel welcome!
