Good grief - NOUFARO what wild memories that brings back. Many a riotous night we spent there back in the 1970/80ties. 8 of us, 2 couples up from Kent, and we 4 locals, used to party over mad week-ends which included a night at Noufaros of awful food, lots of dancing and plate throwing until the wee small hours. I remember it had a very narrow entrance squeezed in close to a barber shop, and the pub or was it beside the old bookshop - those were the days! Another haunt was a wild night at the Ugly Duck? The Duckling? pub in Isleworth. The owner's wife fancied herself as a Diana Dors look alike, in a slinky sequinned gown split to the crutch, long blonde hair draped over one eye. She used to snake out from behind a heavy curtain by throwing a long leg out first and belting out "Hey Big Spender" in a deep sultry voice. Does anyone remember that pub? What fun we used to have. Unabashed joy and carefree laughter and plate throwing of course.
