00:00I worked for the ambulance service for a few years. I ended up leaving, coming back here from where I started as a glass collector.
00:13My sister and her friend were in charge at the time and my sister had a baby and a friend wanted to go into something different, so he left the pub trade completely.
00:27My sister didn't want to take it on her own, so I stood up and took it, took the leap into running my own business.
00:35And it's very much a family affair, isn't it? You run the place with Sharon and your mum Vicky as well works here.
00:41My sister's here, my girlfriend works behind the bar as well, my grandma and grandad both come in drinking, my uncle comes in for our real ale and he brought my other uncle in the other day as well, so there's always one of our family members in.
01:01And it's obviously a very well known pub in Burnley, you say business is doing very well for you after the refurb?
01:08This weekend's been amazing, I didn't realise how much people missed us. All weekend we had stuff on and the pub were booming.
