If he's on their side next year from somewhere else look out!

Did Eric by chance happen to be a former publican (Franklin Hotel City)?

Downside is the amount of older regulars you become attached to who pass away. I've encountered this with 4 in the last year or two.
Found out this morning from his son that my favourite regular passed away.
Eric was a lovely old scottish chap who would be at the pub every day at the same time for his 2 or 3 (or more) West Ends (nothing else would do). Eric was a real character who everyone loved and was often known as Lord Eric for his standing in the pub. My wife grew to love him too, just from meeting him when she'd come in for a quick beer or two. She made sure whenever she made Yorkshire Puddings she'd make some for Eric and wrap them up for me to deliver and he would accept them like an excited kid at Christmas. Everyone loved Eric even if he did get grumpy when we moved him from sitting at the bar just after Covid lockdown, and when he had to move out of his next usual spot as happy hour was only in the front bar.
Every holiday we'd go on we'd always make sure we bought some key rings at our destinations as Eric collected key rings and hung them all up on a huge board at his home. I'll still look for keyrings when I go on holidays and will be sad when I think there's no need to get them any more.
RIP Eric.
