Town Centre Latest

[Sir_Francis]

When I went out regularly, The Bar was turning people away. Some fat cunt bouncer with a shit zig zag beard saying "no Rockport". Oh aye, we all were head to toe in it!

 

Now, The Bar is only a slight step up from The Balmoral, selling whatever they can to anyone who wanders in. Rockport would be over dressed.

 

Fuck drinking in Bolton, fuck shit bouncers, fuck The Bar and fuck Rockport.

You would have absolutely hated burnden park

Obviously never been to my regular haunts round Manchester if they think they're over sanitised.

[Youri McAnespie]

'The Bar' and it's (or rather the tits who ran it) laughable 'exclusivity'...

 

Anyone would think they had had the latest incarnation of Studio 54.

 

They turned away a mate one evening because he had a black eye - he'd been boxing at The Albert Halls and half the folk out in town had been to the show, yet it was still a "no" and the manky velvet rope went unclipped.

 

I have a story about the reality behind 'The Bar' that makes their notion of being billy big bollocks even more laughable.

 

Has it shut down yet, or are they still desperately peddling smoothies alongside serving up daytime pisscans to make ends meet?

[Breightmet Boy]

I've spent the last 6 years in Bolton and I've come to the conclusion it's not for me

 

So at my tender age I am leaving, not sure where yet but it has to be better

I bet your in Bar Metro tonight though

[Carlos]

I have just walked past The Bar, one customer, shitest adidas rubber things and an England top. Class.

 

Kicking off pissed folk outside E&C again, before 12! Off wom.

Does it involve staff urinating into sinks like most of your stories?

Does it involve staff urinating into sinks like most of your stories?

I do hope so.

 

I love Youri's tales

[DIPS]

What was the story about j2 on here, about a member of staff being fired?

[Youri McAnespie]

Does it involve staff urinating into sinks like most of your stories?

Nah, and it would involve exposing another party who's innocent, so...

 

It's in sharp contrast to their elitist image though.

[Youri McAnespie]

Besides which, although they'd probably give their left bollocks to have such a status, and for all their other faults, they're not part of a chain. Disgruntled employees sink-pissing usually only happens in chains.

Manchester is massively overrated. Had a pint on the way back from London after Wimbledon and got stared at by about 10 tramps.

 

It was also the dearest I'd paid for a pint all weekend

Are you sure it wasn't just a pub with mirrored walls? :-)

What exactly did he say that was so offensive, I assume he acted the dick and referred her as he, even though she had long hair and wore a dress or am I missing something?

[only1swanny]

he mistakenly said he..

 

and apologised as soon as someone pointed it out to him..

 

reckon if that's the only newsworthy story from council meetings, its a sad state of affairs..

 

Bin wars on Monday was great fun, as people ran to collect their bin before it was taken away forever, to be replaced by one smaller..

[Winchester White]

Not being funny Swanny but was it a slip of the tongue or did he really say it on purpose? I suspect this is a case of the latter and it has backfired but happy to be wrong.

[Alf Hartigan]

Slip of the tongue my arse. If he has actually met her and she is called Zoe, then referring to her as 'he' is an obvious piss take in my opinion.

 

Saying that, involving the police is way over the top also.

[Youri McAnespie]

Wasn't it his lad who, inbetween his Saturday job and paper round, was a councillor for somewhere in Westhoughton, whilst living in Dalton-in-Furness...

 

The problem with politics is only twats get involved and/or can tolerate all the petty bollocks and interminable meetings and wankery that go with it.

[Traf]

I've only been out drinking in Bolton a couple (or maybe 3) times in the last few years, but I've had a brilliant night out each time.

 

Perhaps it's the company I was with, rather than the place and I reckon that goes for anywhere.

 

Go out with the preconception that somewhere is a crappy shithole and you'll return home believing it.

[enzo gambaro]

There's barely a decent pint in the town centre.

 

So it's a crappy shithole.

[no balls]

Alternatively, better to go somewhere you know you'll enjoy than take the risk you'll end up in a crappy shithole.

[Breightmet Boy]

See I'd rather go out in Bolton than any other local town because your forever bumping into people you've not seen for years, you can rarely do that in other towns. I'm with Traf on this one, it's all about the company your in, it totally outweighs the wallpaper in a boozer by a mile.
