[,is tooooooooooooo many. I don't regret it. BUT,I certainly don't want to go there again. Been there done that. ! I hear you Sister! The best nights of my life, but eventually the great monster that is called "Responsibility" creeps up on you and the mad Saturday nights out slowly metamo...

Went once to the Hass once in the early 90's when I was staying in Liverpool. It was a magic night, though I heard it went downhill with a serious dose of gangsterisation. Same thing happened with Quadrant Park. One on my best CD's is "N-joi" Live in Manchester. Still listen to it all the ...

Nope. I was asked this and the guy kept me awake for weeks refusing to tell me until I loosened his inhibitions one night

Ever seen that group of winos who sit next to the car park on Ross Street, between London Road, & the Gallowgate ? They start very early. They're not starting early, just finishing late :D There's a guy about the Cross/Start of London Rd who always looks at the buildings above him when he's wal...

I want a great big empty cardboard box so I can put myself in it and not come out again until the Chrismas nonsense is over. I would also, however, like one of these waiting for me when i get out; http://www.apdiving.com/evolution/graphics/productgallery/evolution/studiofront.jpg Mmmm shiny toys! PK

My worst part is G12, West End in general, but I save a particular loathing for G12. It's about 40 miles too far East. The people should be in Edinburgh really. Even Jimmy Carr reckons so.

Tommy For some reason every so often Mines pop up at Finnart oil terminal. Must be a tidal/current thing. The Navy removes them rather sharpish thou...

They basicaly carried dredged mud from the from Clyde out to the dumping grounds such as Newshot Island. The punts were 30ft long and each could car...
