He confided in Toni that his wife wouldn’t work in the bar anymore.
A friendly barman in Mircester had given Toni a crash course in pulling pints. She had been worried in ca...se anyone would ask for some kind of cocktail, but the regulars were mostly agricultural workers or farmers and all they wanted was pints of beer.
