Absolutely I was always up&down Columbia rd,because my sister lived right opp the "Birdcage" and I also worked in two neighbour pubs while at school..

What I love about Micky Flanagan is has working class heritage, the higher education he had ... yet his real life observations he can put into humerus accounts ... a good fella !!!

[@rupertfunk4935]

I grew up on the edge of Essex near London but spent my early adult years all round the Bethnal Green and went to Mare st college , every weekend spent around this area and still even now, i then ended up many many years later as a copper in Tower hamlets which I never would have believed I'd end up doing when I was an 18 yr old!! I love seeing Mickey walking around my old stomping ground too, it brings back so many memories as I''m only a year older than him and that whole area was very different back in the late 70's through the 80's. I suspect at some point we were in the same pub at the same time! Still my first choice for a good night out and hopefullt again soon when we get some kind of 'normal' again! Love and peace to all.

[@rw6391]

I used to drink in that pub, shame it was revamped and charged a fortune for half a lager back in 2014. Was a right laugh in there before

[@RandomnessTube.]

A pint in a pub like that beats a glass of wine in some pretentious city bar any day of the week for me.

[@1STBUCKLEY]

Not how they used to be. Most are now pretentious. Try the crown in hackney

[@moosey62]

Same age as Micky. I tell my kids we started going to the pub at 16, they look at me like I'm still a fucking alcoholic.

[@mattkinsella9856]

He had such a typical east end or "estuary" upbringing and to me that's why he's so relatable. I've lived abroad now for about 10 years (no I'm not on the run) and it feels like home to just hear him talk about bunking off school, the characters in the pub who just got out of prison and stripper's pubs in Shoreditch.

[@jerryoshea3116]

Yep,I no this area well,my oldest sister lived opp that boozer(for many yrs) and I worked in two other nearby pubs,(while at school-it was good money!-no Pocket money "dished out" in those days by very frugal Irish ☘️ Parents)So I can def recognise his "tales of the unexpected"..But this version of "The Birdcage"looks alot nicer..As does the whole area,so much so I hardly recognise these places..
