The Royal Standard

The Royal Standard, Portsmouth also in its glory days known as "Rubys", Type 42 association enjoy the odd shandy in here from time to time.....Proper British Boozer this place, soon as you open the door, you are greeted with the smell of stale beer, spilt and digested by the wooden floors over generations of time, wonderful...

Interesting conversation with the bespectacled gentleman you see here, revealed he was part of the Royal Navy contingent that escorted "SS Great Britain" back from the Falkland Island to UK for restoration.....
