is that Italian cafe still along there?
omg the number of times we used to go in there pissed and make lots of noise, and all we'd buy was a plate of chips. I really feel sorry for the staff in there now...
Italian cafe was up the road near the underworld. (Best cafe in the world ever, sadly no more
) Italian restaurant "Angelo's" is near the Alhambra. Had a cracking new years eve there a couple of years back. After hours the waiters had the biggest pile of coke I've ever seen! Good night that was!dicky_plums

It was. Why theH.Dot said:omg please say it wasn't.
small world.
? Were you the one who always requested Dee-lite?

? i can't believe there are so many people on this thread who went to the same place, at the same time... especially as we all live so far apart.

very likely... I used to cane "Groove Is In The Heart" back then.
I think you told me to f*** off when I asked for Crystal Waters though.

I'm no big fan of the Queen's: atmosphere average, decor average, beer ... average. It'd be okay, if it wasn't for the fact that it's 100 yards from the St John's, which is probably the finest pub in east Yorkshire.
I used to live on Beverley Road, though, and I always felt safe there. The bit between the railway bridge and the Haworth Arms was best avoided at closing time, but I used to walk back from the city centre at all hours and various states of intoxication and never had any trouble.
wow haven't posted here for a few... thanks again to all the (oh surprise) especially nightlife hints/shared experience points.

So that means you do what ? What does a anti-capitalist, antifascist political activist do day to day
thanks
Jesus. Groove is in the Heart was on all the time at Tumblers. Was the Peel that pub all on its own by the derelict factories downhill from the back of Tumblers, towards Sunbridge Road? We used to go in there for a few 'dutch courage' bevvies and a game of pool before trying out luck with the ladies (er....girls) at Tumblers. Thing is, it was harder getting served at the Peel.
Can I just put in a shout for Chad's in Shipley?

on a day to day basis i have to sadly say i am not the most active person around, although i do usually get around to reading political literature and keeping up with a leftist/undogmatic perspective on current events through indymedia and the like. i'm currently tying up my threads where i am now as far as groups are concerned, so i'm not really out and about much anymore. the every once in a while demo of course and an attempt at a concious consumptive practice.
in bradford i would definitely be willing to get into any of various social movements, be it climate, gender, asylum, fash or other, with an aim at developing perspectives in theory and practice as to how we can overcome or deal with the problems at hand... still sounds kind of vague doesn't it?
meet me in bradford for a chat then?

Was it a CAMRA pub that was always rammed? Sold loads of real ales and ciders. The Fighting Cock? We used to go there all the time. They sold cider called 'Thatcher's falling down'. My mate tried about 5 pints of it and sure enough she fell down. Ended up at the BRI

The dancey cheesey bit (hated by all the rock kids) at Tumblers did always seem to feature Groove is in the Heart, I Want You Back - Jackson 5, Twist and Shout, maybe Stereo MCs, Prodigy...
The Peel was just up from Tumblers, next to the Uni. You may mean Scruff & Snobbs on Listerhills, or maybe Lord Clyde on Thorton Road..?
Fighting Cock is still there and still popular for real ale and nice chilli.

Nah! She definately means the football team!
QUITE THE URGENT UPDATE HERE!!!
Will probably (very likely) be in manchester on the 15th of September. Can't get into halls in Bradford until the 17th though. Can I crash with anyone in/around Mancherster, Leeds or (obviously) Bradford until the 17th?
I could/would cook, buy bear or whatever as a token of gratitude!
