I love Bangor. Had you turned right as you were walking back up from Paddy's, there was a great dive bar up that street. Full of locals. Sound as pounds the lot of them but sometimes it maybe a little grim. I can't remember the name of it. I do remember the students were terrified of going in there. It might no longer be there but I hope it still is.

Bangor isn't rough. It's run down like a lot of town centres but it isn't rough. It was a much better place in the 90s before all the big out of town shops were built, again like many places. You need to go to South Wales for really rough towns, we're much more civilized in North Wales 😉😅

The Lord Nelson in Urmston is worth a visit. Holt's pub, they brew their own version of stout called, "Trailblazer." I think you'd like it. Used to frequent there in my 20's, buy a packet of Park Drive and sink a gallon of Holt's bitter, sat happily puffing away in the front room affectionately known as, "The Chapel of Rest." Happy days.

It's called the Nelson Arms because the Menai Strait is apparently where a young Nelson learnt navigation. He said if you could sail through the Menai Strait, you could sail anywhere.

Enjoyed your videos. I moved from Handsworth Wood ( your last video)to Anglesey where I worked in Bangor many years ago. The bars you visited seemed a bit tame but it was early. The locals told me to avoid certain bars where an English accent was not welcome. Home to Welsh Nationalists. Things could get tasty. Suggest you call in on Chester when you head North to Scotland Place of my youth and lots of great bars to wander around. You may want to avoid those frequented by the squaddies from the local army camp.
