Accrington on a Thursday night...
 
wow didnt know it was this busy

i was meetin some friends in the calder and it was really heaving there - first i thought it was just lots of students doin the a-level results thing

but then loads of other places were still busy too and apparently its busier than a friday night!

went to the beez kneez for the first time and OMG what a dump!!

accrington is really in need of a nightclub - a good one like opium. to end the night in bridge isnt doing anything at all for the town.

Calder is the best place in Accy by far now!!

It's spacious, it's got good atmosphere and plenty of bar staff to serve you!! AND most importantly, I have never seen any major trouble in there




I will be there tonight in my usually spot :D:D:D

From what little memory I have of Accrington last night, yeah it was packed :D

Started off in Calder & thought it was a nice gaff, hadn't been in before.

Went onto my haven that is The Attic later on & well it's a bit of a blur after that...

Although it's a long time ago, I remember Thursdays and Sundays as being the night to go out in town. Thursdays because you could just about manage a Friday at work with a hangover and Sunday because it was trying to squeeze out the last ounce of weekend.

That wasn't to long ago, but now Accy doesn't seem to be as busy nowadays:confused:

It is about time pubs realised that they need to 'go continental' and serve hot drinks. Most places have a kettle on hand for drinks such as 'whisky all in'
If they tried to charge me more than 80p for a mug of instant coffee I would take my own,with mug and ask for the hot water - to see how much they dare ask for that :(

You would think that they would welcome non drinkers in order to make the place look full and popular to passersby

if you would have read my post correctly you would have realized i wasnt on about alco levels or the j20 brigade or i would have quoted a diff post, i quoted the said post because i was on about his uneducated racist remark towards the police.. !!!...then the muslim community wonder why there is tension between communities with stupid pathetic statements like manis..

so yeah...PILLOCK :mad:

Me i just drink orange and soda when i go out. Tis easier and its cheaper than a j20. Decided to drink that because went out one night and asked for a j20 and they charged me £2.50 nearly fainted from shock - i said how can you charge that much for a j20 when a pub near me sells it for £1.50? Said thats the price so i said no thanks i'll have an orange and soda please half or pint - pint please no ice thanks and they charged me £1.

BLACKBURN RAVER 05-09-2007 21:43

Re: Accrington on a Thursday night...
 
and for me to get on thread i personally think (and i said this on sunday) that ALL draught soft drinks (coke,soda etc) and cordials should be cheaper eg: 50p or even free or the pub should ask for a minimum donation of 25p the proceeds of which should goto local charities at the end of each month...:cool:

Lolly 06-09-2007 09:36

Re: Accrington on a Thursday night...
 
I agree that they should be cheaper but at the end of the day, the landlords/ladies still have to buy them. So they can't really go around giving them away.

I had the pleasure of going to the Bridge on Friday night, just for one drink on our way home from a party.

All I can say is that it should be re-named SMELL

It was minging in there....... Yes, there are good things since the smoking ban, there was no fog in there and we could see clearly but.... The smell of farts was so horrendous that not even the freezing cold air-con could keep it at bay. We left half of our drinks in there as we couldn't get out quick enough... Honestly, it was that ripe my eyes were watering. If I venture into town on a friday night again, I'll take a gas mask...:D

flashy 10-09-2007 15:30

Re: Accrington on a Thursday night...
 
ive not been in a pub at all since the smoking ban came into force...dont get me wrong it isnt because of the smoking ban, ive been skint lol

Re: Accrington on a Thursday night...

God it's bad. :eek:
