Pub Card - Yellow Household

Post by CharlieCC »

Little pub anecdote I have for you all - bit unusual as well.

In the nearest pub to where I live, there's a number of Pub Cards where bags of peanuts are hung up. There's two in mine for Big D nuts (familiar to anyone) and both have women posing on them, becoming increasingly visible as the nuts come down (those familiar with UK pub culture will know what I'm on about!). Having said that, the pub card for the dry roasted nuts features an image of a woman cleaning a bar wearing yellow rubber household gloves.

I have half a mind to take a screwdriver to it's anchors and nicking it for myself! hehe! :twisted: (sorta my equivalent of a sneaky steal to those on this forum who like to steal household gloves from cleaning carts ;) )

Having said that, if anyone knows of such an image floating around in cyberspace somewhere then please get it on the forum! (besides, a jpeg file will be a hell of a lot easier to conceal than a pub card!)

I will if the card isn't covered with bags of nuts, that's the trouble y'see! It's practically worthless unless they've run out of dry roasted! When they do though I definitely definitely will! :)

Having played a lot of gigs at Working Men's Clubs in the UK, I am very familiar with the peanut cards (that and the scampi fries as well!). Having a quick google, I found myself at the Big D website, where they have a gallery of photos of the models I guess they have on the cards, and found this image:

Can't tell if it's the one you're on about, or whether this picture is even used for the cards; either way, it does feature a model wearing yellow household gloves, and was the only one on the website that matched your description.

Hope that helps!
