Walllpaper.
Talking of mens names this was a little prank that the lads used to get upto in the days before mobile phones and when pubs were full.All pubs had public phones and normally there would be a phone box close by outside.When there was a barmaid on one of the lads would go to the phone box phone the pub and ask the barmaid if Mike Hunt was in.It was funny to hear the barmaid shouting around the pub "Is Mike Hunt in here".It would'nt work today the barmaid would only have to ask one person if his name was Mike Hunt.
Regards.
Jim.B.
