How times have changed, and not necessarily for the better. Too many restrictions on people nowadays. Pam is a real tonic! ;))

And what a rowdy, irreverent, knows-who-she-is woman—didn’t you want to just stay and talk til bedtime?

I hope she’s not one-of-a-kind—it’s nice to think of those wonderful women, still having a pint and being JUST WHO THEY ARE. Delightful.

says rachel, who also married a younger man

I spent most of my time looking over my shoulder, trying to avoid the tricks of the girls who had us in their sights! The place was full of Pams and Sweary Marys! Good fun and they paid us as well!

Can she ever tell a story full of verve and character.
Thanks for introducing us to Pam.
I hope we read about her again.

This amused me a good deal this morning, especially the part when this amazing lady says her youngest is sixty two and her eldest is sixty six! Ha Ha. Not many characters left in this world who have stories like this along with the style in which she has all this to say in the unique way she talks throughout this entertaining monologue. A great sense of personality as well as a snippet of real life history. Keep these stories coming!
