THE IMPY HAS THE BALANCE RIGHT:




COLD BEER AND ATMOSPHERE, THE PERFECT COMBINATIOJN

"Gunnedah Imperial" ‘THE IMPY ‘ Where I walked into a party.



The cellar deep below, runs full length below the bar.

Beer always crisp, kegs directly below, doesn't travel far.

Every sip the patron takes is rewarded with an 'Ahhh'


There are two types of people, pub and non-pub.

Looking for the right mix of atmosphere and cold beer.

Found such a place at the Gunnedah Imperial [IMPY]

Just off the main drag of town and on the third attempt.

Instinctively to know, this place you’re looking for is here

 

First thing one notes as Karina swirls into the bar.

Filling in the space, asking everyone how they are.

All with a striking smile, that literally fills the room.

Ray of sun to brighten anyone with a sense of gloom.


Mentions all by their name, knows all of their drinks.

Making them feel important, regardless of their jinks.

Effortlessly handling money around the bar into the till.

Combining, striking fun conversation all the while, at will.


Leaves the air buzzing, make drinkers happy to be there.

Tis a complete job description one doing it very well.

Days that used to dawdle have doubled to a sprint.

No time to waste, only question left, schooner please.


Sitting quietly, observing all around, time for a wander.

Suggested to assess the ‘Boiler Bar’ sitting down the back.

That is where I met the Sunday party, all around the heat.



Ok to take the pic with you in the scene, do you want to move?

No worries mate, take pics you want, what are you doing here?

 

This is where I met the happy face of “Brooke” [With an ”E”]

A book you say, can I see, I think I will take the lot, all three.

If there is another, can you please include me. [Don’t forget the “E’]

Smiles all round, a happy space, no sign of grumbly faces found in this space


Fire was warm, mood was light, company a delight.

As karina serves each beer just right.




Bec serves my brand of refeshing beer, without the need to prompt

There are panels of knowledge on any subject you name.

Not that all experts are bound to agree, except to disagree.
