I thought the place was more fun when it was open to the general public . I was a single guy and went quite regular , after the complaints of villagers that they couldn’t get in it reverted back to village people only , many people were mad about this and there were letters to the paper , I also believe that’s when the first cries of villages entitlement were heard , it was also the start of the slow decline to the end because unlike the outsiders who came frequently the complainers mostly came once a month or maybe not at all , whatever the reasons it was never the same , I saw more drinking being done in the bathroom , ( plenty of little nips in the trash ) then in the bar . ,I only have second hand information but it was always a selling point for the villages and didn’t make money for a long time , true or not it wasn’t working . I can only use my self as an example , from a regular to someone who hardly went anymore , but I did have some fun times there .
