The Globe Inn, Godreaman, Aberdare

I hadn't been in here for ages. It hasn't changed a bit - it's still a shrine to Leeds Utd, and a biker/rock pub. The beer's decent, the crowd is good, there are plenty of big rooms for different purposes, and a nice beer garden at the back. We used to come up here regularly when we were younger, but we all settled down and it got a bit sidelined. If it wasn't so far from town, I'd go there more often. Pool table, jukebox, Sky TV, chocolate bars on sale at the bar. I saw a band here years ago. They weren't much good, but it passed an afternoon. A few months later they changed their name to The Stereophonics. Everyone's got to start somewhere...
