Cultural Conservative

When I was a lad, the cheapest place to buy beer was the local Working Man’s Club. My dad played in the dart’s team and could get Guinness for about 80p per pint. A few years later, we moved and the cheapest Guinness was to be had at the Conservative Club. It was a cool place to hang out. They had snooker and darts and a disco every Saturday. I played my first ever game of Space Invaders there.
I expect that, had he been around in the late 18th century, my dad would have hung out at the local Episcopalian Church with George Washington.
