Peak stuff this.
A fella who wants to rekindle days gone bye starts a thread asking for advice and within 20 odd posts it's ascended to Trump/Brexit/Nonce/No you are/No you are/Homophobe/No you are/define 'normal'/I'm normal/so are other normals.
Mate, stick to the top end of town, Hope Street and all the drinkers around there.
The further you go into town it's full of eejits being pushed round in shopping trolleys with 25 no marks thinking it's hilarious or snarly, shaven headed Gangster types called J Macca who are either looking to be charged with attempted murder, or under investigation for the same thing.
Mostly surrounded by daft bints in what look like lime coloured pyjamas with what also looks like a bottle full of Banana coloured liquid with curlers included nailed to their heads.
None of them will be friendly or accommodating.
Aye, all of that.If you want to get home in one piece and have a hassle free night, around Hope St is 100% the place to go.
He`s looking for a bit more than a relaxing night out by the sounds of it though, so I`d go for Mathew St, as it`s always busy, the crowd is a bit older and mixed ( tourists ) and there`s less chance for getting your face ripped off by J Macca and his army of cocaine and steroid fuelled pyschos.
Plus, you can always walk the short distance onto Dale St and all the old skool boozers there, when it all gets too much.
ButtI think the point is a place in town is the constant butt of the joke on here because it’s a gay bar so it’s easy to see why some wouldn’t find that funny and may even take offence.
Aye, I’ve already had the heads-up pal.
I have a story about these sort of bars, I went to Newcastle for a night out when I was a youngun and ended up in a club called ‘The Powerhouse’ the name should have been a giveaway but naive is my middle name.
Anyway, I ordered a couple of pints for me and my mate. When I turned around and seen two fellas kissing. I turned to my mate and said that’ll not end well for them doing that around here. His reply, ‘look about they’re all at it’ - He wasn’t wrong. I’m not one to waste beer so decided to stay and then leave after I finished. Halfway through my pint and I get talking to a young Irish girl from Cork, I could see it had potential so decided to stay for another at which point my made drifted, he couldn’t hack it.
A couple of hours later and this girl takes me into the ‘ladies’ (I use that term loosely) toilets. The looks I got going into the cubicle with her could have killed me. A couple of minutes later as she was straddling me, these ‘ladies’ started to boot the door in shouting ‘get him f***ing out of here’
That was an experience and a half, also not one to tell the grandkids.
There’s my pointless and random story for the day.

So in this case, it's the Hope that doesn't kill you?If you want to get home in one piece and have a hassle free night, around Hope St is 100% the place to go.

Walk in the park. I done 40hrs in Runaway Bay police station, Jamaica. That was an experience.I can't be the only one hoping this was going to be @Darren78 style weekend in Rotterdam/Ibiza/Jail
Pills, though lads, eh? Lads? Pills?
Thank you, mate.If you want to get home in one piece and have a hassle free night, around Hope St is 100% the place to go.
