On this day in 1960, 23rd April, John and Paul took a trip to a pub, The Fox and Hounds, in Caversham in Berkshire, England to stay with Paul’s cousin Bett Robbins and her husband Mike who ran the pub. The couple had both worked as Butlin’s Redcoats before taking on the pub and the teenage Lennon and McCartney were keen to get their advice.
Yes, John and Paul performed as “The Nerk Twins”! They sang songs like the Les Paul and Mary Ford hit, “The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise”, as well as “Be-Bop-A-Lula”.
