From Herbert Warnes of Sutton, 2006        (CH B2-2-16b)

'I can remember going into Horning Half Moon one Sunday night, and that was then about twelve o'clock, and there were four or five of us, a gang, drinking . . . There was a banging on the door. We said to the landlord, "Police." He said, "Tha's all right. Tha's chaps from Ludham." And they said, "Let us in! You've got someone in there." So they came in - three or four chaps from Ludham and we were there until about three o'clock in the morning. And they had a go at singing songs, and if you'd sing a song, and the others didn't know it, y'see, someone else would have to buy the beer. Buy you a pint. And I remember singing that song On the Banks of the Clyde. I knew they wouldn't know that, and they didn't. Then we had to get up at six o'clock in the morning; 'bout a couple of hours sleep. But nobody seemed bothered . . . and go a-sugar-beet hoein'.'
