At Fighting Cocks


This is a really scary pub with a borderline inappropriate name that only the rowdiest locals go to. Every time we walk by, Nathan asks me if I want to stop in for a beer. However, I hate the taste of beer and I'm scared of the people inside.


On Thursday nights after Bible study, the Christian students from our church take over the place. We decided to join them this particular time because our car was still at my school, and the pub was on the way there. I agreed to go in for a half pint of Diet Coke because there were other girls there too. Plus, it would still be light out when we left at 10:30. Somehow that tricked my mind into thinking that it was still early.


Nathan's Bible study co-leader, also named Nathan, is making a funny face and pointing at us. He also has his mouth open, like my Nathan. It's catching on.

Our first few months in Durham we saw a huge fight spill out of the pub and into the street. We just happened to be walking by at the time. From that point on we walked by quickly and didn't make eye contact with anyone!

Glad to hear you braved it for a short period of time...you are a better woman than I!
