Remember the old victorian baths near the curzon? Well we used to go swimming there and then we moved down south and my form tutor used to be a lifeguard there at the same sort of time. Seriously weirded me out...

# Tried to see
Teen Wolf there but as we we're stood there with ma pops deciding whether we really wanted to see it, they sold the last tickets in front of us! We had to go see Snow white and the Seven Dwarfs instead during which my old man fell asleep and snored like a right SOB... And parents wonder why we don't take em to the cinema when we get older...

# I seem to remember
a b3tan was running a night at Pleasure Lounge in Withy though, so maybe we should just hijack that. However, personally I prefer getting drunk in town. Do you think a pub would be a good idea or a club with midweek "free room hire" like sofa or something? How many of us are there?
(I helped save b3ta! Mingus wonders where all the time went, Thu 15 May 2003, 1:12, archived)
# Indeed.
I think a quiet pub to start with to meet up. Then go elsewhere.

we can visit my favourite pub, the Ape and Apple on Bridge Street. Three cheers for Joey Holt's pubs.
