I could probably quote most of this series. Classic!

"I didn't catch your name"

"That's because I didn't throw it"

"It's Heather, Heather Argyle"

Wish I had a clue how to post pictures as I've just grabbed some caps from the DVD. Most amusing.

Photobucket. They'll see you right.

Correct they did But as we don't have 24/7 coverage of all topics and threads it can be a bit of a job keeping abreast of every topic on a daily basis

Gus.

No worries Gus,
The RED letters are used to draw attention to the subject and not for chastisment purposes hope that clears this up.

It was the first place in my pubescent youth that I watched the girls drink the men under the table

Squires was a quite 'well to do' gay bar. I used to work up the road. Very popular with the office crowd at lunchtime. Total poofetry in the evening.

As for the person that mentioned 'Maxwell Plums', it has long been demolished. Was a haunt of one of Colin Barr's first nights. As for 'The Warehouse' and 'The Mardi-Gras' with the dance floor like a huge lift.... Once you got on, you couldn't get off. Pretty poor when the DJ was sh*t and you had to keep dancing. And of course the confetti cannon at the end of the night.

Oh dearie me. I'm so old, I'm just waiting for death......

Burns howff was a favourite hang out of mine many moons ago, I used to be a regular, and my favourite band who played there were, Stone the Crows. and the brilliant Maggie Bell, who now lives in Rotterdam.

My mother used to run a pub in Duke st, It was just outside the gates of Tennents brewery, it was called Jacks bar, and it was directly opposite the Overdale.............Do any of you guys remember it!!! It was demolished in the early eighties

Few more that have come back to me.
Cafe noir in Queen St We called it the 'naf caf'
Bobalovskies Balloon in Mitchel St.Big long bar with about 30 stools
Danny Browns in St Vincent St have we mentioned that one?
