Occasionally a tourist drifts into the madness. They seem nervous at first. But the mood soon infects them. Their hips normally so frozen get to swaying in time to the music. Somebody they have never seen before buys them a drink.
Conversations ranging from necrophilia to health foods to mainsail trim, swirl through the air.
There s a strange feeling of exuberance in the air. I ll get some ting to drink at de Yard. Amid all the noise and music and shouting, it is easy to overlook the simple fact of what really makes the place so special. On both sides of the bar, you couldn t get any better.
