Hi Sir

Hi

Time was against Napoleon. He lost time and troops at Hougoumont and was delayed at La Haye Sainte. By 7pm [?] the Prussians had arrived in force and the rest is history.

With all due respect that was rubbish , Michael from Leeds

I went to that shithole in 84 as well. Dirty, dangerous and unfriendly. Hated the place and have never gone back.

Fantastic video Dodger, tugged at my heart strings big time while you was at Repton boxing club, which also i did alot sparring with the late great Mr Tony Burns, MBE, so many memories there with the pics and original tiles which i remember to this day, and of course your other journeys in the east end, especially the iconic graves. Gonna say, if the Krays were about today there would be no more of this nonsense in my beloved east end.

Batley Variety club not far away offering many fantastic nights out but sadly I have no desire to go back to Dewsbury after being told, by 5 youths in a hatchback, to “ get back to my ’own’ country”. And that was 20 years ago.

Not as good as Fearnsides just up the road or the Market Tavern in the town centre.

spent many happy hours in the John F in the late 80s. Great beer, great crowd and incredible jukebox. and never any bother. I pass it fairly regularly and wish it was still open.

Great pub in its day. One of the first pubs I ever went into. Ted and Sue taught me how to pull a pint and I worked there for a short time. Best pint of Tetleys in the area :)

There is a pub in Sheffield called the Grapes on trippet lane that has a room all dedicated to JFK. Definitely worth a look if your interested in stuff like that.

My nan & grandad lived at 166, the end house of the group. My every weekend was spent there as I grew up, 'til they were moved on to a high rise near Bow Flyover. I was 14 at that time, as I recall, born '54 so that would've been '68 ish when the terrace was demolished. Nan & me mum were on good terms with Vi, the mother & I well remember how my heart would sink if they got chattin' with her 'cos they'd go on for what seemed like bleedin' hours whilst I sat at the kerb digging at ants with an old lolly stick or the like to pass the time. One such time, about age ten, I was kicking an old, threadbare, tennis ball against Vi's wall when Reg came out the door & tried to dribble the thing off of me....he succeeded but I stamped on one of his super shinny winkle-pickers by accident & he gave me a clip round the ear....nothing nasty, more in fun really but me mum didn't half give him a roasting! "Oy, oy...keep yer bleedin hands to yerself you big lump a lard...or else" Vi was a sweetie...she'd often call us kids in to the house & give us bread & jam slices with sugar sprinkled all over. Both me grandad & me dad did odd jobs for the twins...don't think they ever got money for that, very little if any at all but being in their favour was kinda worth a whole lot more...& when I say odd jobs that would be nothing naughty. Despite the reputation from afar, some most certainly well earned, the boys were the local social services & police rolled into one for us locals, they were always known/seen to be fair. So if you behaved reasonably in the community then you were treated fairly in return...step outa line tho' & you could be in deep shit! Guess many would be shocked at the rough justice at play but it bloody well worked & the area was super safe for the women & kids back then, the old/sick/infirm treated like royalty. Example...my family frequented the Barley Mow pub down the road a bit, as did the Kray family/friends at times & as 166, being the end terrace, had a fair bit of garden compared to the others so the pub would more often than not turn out to then turn up at nan/grandads....blokes filing down Vallance Rd with wooden crates of Manns brown ale, boxes of Babycham , Warninks Advocaat & the like! One such evening one of the party go'ers was an uncle Benny (as a kid everyone was an aunt/uncle tho' few actually were) The fella was well pissed & stank of booze when he came into the wee bedroom upstairs where I'd been sent to keep away from the craziness. He tried it on with me but lucky for me he was too pissed & I managed to get away to run downstairs to my mum/nan....who of course went straight to my dad/grandad who in turn went to report `elsewhere`. I remember standing in the hallway as uncle Benny was politely escorted out the door & sent packing...no big scene whatsoever....and I also remember sitting on the stairs, listening to me mum/nan chattin in the kitchen a few days later, as to how Benny had been found that morning round the back of Fingalbaum's Fish & Chips in Bethnal Green Rd, castrated & bleeding to death...rushed off to Mile End Hospital but died en route.

Im almost 39years old i remember this as a child been open it is very unique 👌 i still live in dewsbury

Pubs in Dewsbury are becoming a rarity. The benefits of MC

I once stopped at the tower on my way past at 4:30 am and ther were still people hustling tourists with junk!

I'd love to have this pub I'm a Barnsley lad but ad still. Take on take it back to a biker pub not many biker pubs left now,, real biker joints 😢

I played in a casual football team in the early 90's and we used to play regularly against pub teams who wanted to play friendlies. Once or twice we played against Ted's team. Toe-Poke Ted we called him lol. He was reportedly in his early fifties then so it wouldn't surprise me to hear he was at least 85 or so, as of 2024

Haha well done Dodger. I haven't watched the full video yet, but he's incriminated himself in the first 10 seconds by walking down a prohibited pedestrian area

Very special memories for me. Ted used to start sweeping up very late to get rid of us all.

Everybody knows this pub as the John F, but before 1968 it was The Rising Sun. There was a pub called The Sun Inn not far from here on Boothroyd Lane.

The amount of pubs and clubs that have disappeared or shut in Doomsbury and Batley and it is disgraceful. But I guess it's a sign of the times and population not frequenting pubs n clubs. As most things these days since Zee Lurgy, it's use it or lose it. 😊

Spent many Happy hrs in the JFK late 70s early 80s, great group , Ted and Sue ran it well, was called the Rising Sun , before and one of the favourite songs on the Juke Box was House of the Rising Sun by Fidgid Pink ( great version) nice memories thanks for the commentary.

I worked up in Dewsbury for a while in 2023 after getting my visa (I’m a Lancashire lad) it looked quirky and imagined it full of Characters. It looked like it was closed but hope I’m wrong 👍

Where have all the French gone

My late father in law's parents used to run this pub...it was called the rising sun in its former days.

OMG GUTS AND BLACKPOWDER

Hello from Belgium ! :) I live in Braine l'Alleud and you can see my building and my car at 25:14 on the video haha It’s great that you stopped by to discover our little town! :)

Watching your great video has tempted me to visit Paris again after many years.

Played right back for the John f in the glory years 😁, and we still go out for a pint with ted as a group of Ted's old boys 🍻

I have cousins in Bradford 😊

Very fond memories of this pub as I had my very first pint in here.As someone said a fantastic jukebox and never any bother.Ted was so laid back but ran a good pub and served the best pint of Landlord I’ve had or will have. All my friends loved it there and it was always our go to,best pub out of the many in Dewsbury.Sorry to read about Sue though.

My father was born in Dewsbury in 1937. He drank in here in the late 1960s and 70's. He said Mr Rushworth had to get permission from the Kennedy family in the US to use the name. Not sure if that is true or an urban myth.

You need a car on Unst

I wasted my formative years drinking there, don't regret a second of it. Hope Ted is doing well and my condolences to him for his loss. RIP Sue. Wonder if BarbedWire the barmaid is still with us? Its been a long time.

I bet Ted still has the best juke box in Dewsbury

The John F has a very special place in my heart. As a biker I used to frequent it for over 20 years on and off. Yep, jukebox was legendary. Moved out of the area 20 years ago and am saddened to here of Sues death.
