Drinkers shaved dead man's head

nothing.gif

An inquest has heard how a man in a pub died while friends partied around him and played practical jokes on him.

They shaved one side of Ian Clifton's head and took photographs of him with an inflatable doll.

Mr Clifton, 35, had been dead for up to an hour at the Jervis Lumb pub close to his home in Norfolk Park, Sheffield.

Last October he called at the pub and joined a birthday party for a member of the pub's fishing team.

By 10pm, Mr Clifton had become unconscious after drinking about 11 pints of lager and a quantity of home-made punch throughout the course of the day, the inquest heard.

Duty of care

As he lay out cold in the pub, his friends shaved one side of his head and placed an inflatable doll on him which they photographed. This was described as common practice at the pub. :D

Some time later an ambulance was called, and paramedics found Mr Clifton was dead.

A forensic pathologist told the inquest that he had died of acute alcoholic poisoning.

Returning a verdict of accidental death contributed to by neglect, Coroner Chris Dorries expressed concern that such an incident could occur in a busy public house.

He plans to write to Sheffield's licensing magistrates, so that they can remind other publicans of their duty of care to customers.

Classy!

Rough, soulless and had no beauty... and the pub was no better with awful beer on top. Whitbread keg in a concrete box. Craft ale brewed in Doncatraz is probably better.

Just about to head down The Beer Engine as it is getting good reports, before Albion and then Sentinel ( to blow all me Xmas money on a pint!)

Jervis Lum a good estate pub. Grew up boozing in the likes of the Grennel Mower (Tetleys), Magpie (John Smiths), Batemoor (John Smiths) and Jordanthorpe (Tetleys). Three have gone now RIP.

Theg were the days when you never 'spent a night in'. Remember one Christmas Day night about 1973 the only pub we could find open was the Cross Scythes on Scarsdale Road. No buses. Long walk there and back. No way were we not going out.

Nowadays kids are quite happy to sit at home in summit called a 'onesie' on their 'phone or iPad.

Hope you all have a great Boxing Day.

My mum used to work as a barmaid at Jervis Lum in the early 70s. Think she worked at Blackstock at Gleadless for a time too.

Unfortunately the man that died was the husband of the badge lady on the corner of Cherry St.
 
Bert always wishes that he could have rescued a few of those white railings to put on display at the Bert residence.
