Where on Earth are you??!!

[astral]

So, uh, I live in Horfield, Bristol, but you ain't getting my phone number this time

you live near me.

I applied to work for MI5 once if that counts....

 

[munkeeunit]

Oh, fuck, am I in trouble now. I can almost feel your presence. You might even be my next door neighbour. I better get me tin foil hat out just in case.

MI5 and MOD people, and the police are really funny. I almost like them in a weird way, especially as I've sussed out that if you talk to a copper in the same weirdly self-assured authoritative way they talk to us, then they kind of short circuit, start doing as they're told, and stop answering back.

Like a jedi mind trick or something.

Simple brains and all that.

I love them.

Caversham park village, you ?

Didn't think of that one.

Told you MI5 are funny.

If you'd been clever you wouldn't have pointed out to me that you could identify me via my tin foil hat, as we do need reminding. Which is much like doing the secret monitoring they deny they do, and slipping a finger on the send button.

Duh!

 

[oooomegrapes]

Yeah, but at least it's not Reading eh?

You really ought to come out for a pint. Or something.

yeah, was trying to sort something out with your mrs before xmas but never happened....... im up for a beer or something

Typical MI5 hatchet job!

trowbridge

We really ought to do an Exeter meet up soon. But not for a couple of weeks as I am off to Spain

 

[jannerboyuk]

No, sadly. I moved here from London about 18 months ago and immediately got pregnant so I've missed out on all the fun(?) stuff.

I've never even been to Union Street

Have I missed out? Can anyone enlighten me about the delights of Plymouth nightlife?

The Nowhere Inn
The Thistle Tavern
The Minerva (oldest pub in Plymouth)
A few pubs on Mutley Plain are ok, friendly enough.
The Cooperage and the Phoenix for live music and on occasion Tramps in the bus station for a bit of punk especially the Bus Station Loonies and the stuff they organise.
The Jazz place down the barbican as well as the Dolphin pub on the Barbican with a few night clubs that are alright.
Dunno about Union Street cuz i've always hated it although as always it kinda depends on your individual tastes.
Read Backbone's column in the 24/7 magazine and you won't go too far wrong.
Apparently there are now 3 maybe 4 record companies in Plymouth which might make you laugh but thats a load more then when i was last in Plymouth (i.e. none) and the Musicians Co-op are always organising some nice gigs.l
The Student Union organises some nice gigs but i forget how non-students get in (if at all).

 

[chemn]

St Columb Major (near Newquay).

I've heard good things about Dance Academy and Candy Store in Plymouth. But I think I'd prefer a good outdoor rave (if I ever hear about one).

Instructions to get to where I live.

Go to Penzance...

Keep going...

If you find yourself plummeting toward spikey granite and heaving black ocean, you've gone slightly too far.

a uni mate of mine grew up in the scilly isles (cant remember which one), she always felt that was a bit too far. once she set foot on the mainland she rarely bothered to go home.

 

[xenon]

Surely not!!

Well sort of. new over priced flats and of all things a new italian restaraunt. East street seems to be hanging on to it's, erm... Charm?

 

[Zaskar]

I think the term for changes in bedminster should be evolving rather than developing...

Well I think evolution's a bit optimistic. Naa. It's alright really, for the most part. A fair few chavvy types, but a lot of decent, regular folk, like what I is. I think.

<Waves arm in air>

I know the Nowhere! I've probably seen you in there coz it's pretty small!! I was the lady knocking over glasses with baby bump every Friday night until recently. Probably the only sober person in there!

Mr. Poot still drinks there every Friday with his uni lecturer mates.

I've been to some great places on Mutley Plain and I quite like North Hill. A bloke I worked with has a band with a record contract so I'm not surprised about the record companies.

Mr. Poot avoids the Union like the plague as he's a lecturer, so I've never been.

Thanks for your help. When Poot Baby is a little older I shall find a babysitter and I WILL have a life again!
