Come out of Mile End Tube, take a right and about 60 yards on your right, you 'll come upon a pub...
This pub was an unremarkable place until a year or so ago, when it underwent a makeover and name change..
I forget the original name, but it was renamed
Virtue
From the outside at least, Virtue had gone all 'noughties night club in the provinces'
We're talking big silver lettering on black.Very cheap chic. How sign makers approximate Hollywood glamour for a few hundred unconvincing quid...
Well I've never yet been inside Virtue and I wouldn't have any reason to, other than pure curiosity - I only ever go that way when on the way to somewhere else..
In fact, I wouldn't know anything about the place, it if it wasn't for slipping upon a couple of pieces in the local paper
The first piece said that someone had been stabbed outside after an altication inside, and the second (a few weeks later) said it'd been busted for drugs...
Yes boss, a police raid had seen to it that a whole bunch of crack dealers had been shipped out of what had apparently been a very good place to score hard drugs.
There were 10 or 12 of them, all caught with their trousers down inside Virtue..
Well, after another makeover Virtue has just reopened.
It's new name??
Milestone
I'm not sure if or why that's interesting, but it's struck some kind of a chord with me...
