    Yes it was called the "Red Barrell" about 20 years ago when I was in the military. The Army lads had many good nights there on weekends off.
    It is now called The Pub & Grub.

    Dundee you piss drinking midget, if you added up all the time you have spent sitting on your arse drinking that lolly water you call beer, how much tome could you have spent doing all those things Mrs D wants done around the farm?

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
