The Canadian in Pearl street, closed in 2015, two of my old Ely pals ran this pub at different times years ago.

Used to live around the corner on Cecil street. Good mix of people in there. Also gone is the Bertram, the locomotive (rough as fuck) the Moorland the Cardiff Arms etc etc

They all left and went back to drinking in the Kings after an argument with Robin about the youngsters getting in there and ruining the pub.
