Dive bar.

Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a west end town
Call the police, there's a madman around
Running down underground to a dive bar
In a west end town
- Pet Shop Boys, West End Girl

I've always rather liked these lyrics, along with the concept of a "dive bar". The pub I had a beer or two in this evening was fairly civilised but as is so often the case the facilities were primitive - at least the gents were - and so reminded me of these words.

On the plus side at least there is a beer mat on top of the urinal - we wouldn't want to leave beer-rings there after all!
