THURSDAY nights in July are ladies' nights at Waterfoot's The Moulders but there will be no stripping!

"I'm Christine not Natalie," joked landlady Christine Young.

The Corrie story line of the Masked Python may have had the ladies packing the Rovers, but Christine said: "We don't want to frighten off the men so I am not going to introduce any strippers.

"Instead we are offering half-price cocktails and have a menu including Rebel Rouser, Hen Party, Blue Lagoon and Pina Colada."

And if the weather's good, ladies might like to sip their exotic drinks in the newly opened beer garden.

It took six months to construct the garden because the builders lost the plans and used the wrong fencing which had to be taken down and replaced with wrought iron!

Said Christine: "It might have taken a long time but it is now well used. We have had barbecues in it and it is quite a sun trap."
