Stay clear of Rock World, unless there is a gig or a session that you actually want to see. Used to be good but gone down hill and now full of teenage goths puking in the toilets.

I think Rockworld is still the best Rock club in the country, I can't think of a better one. you do get some kids but there are at least two adult rooms (no Sally it's not like the cinema). There used to be a cracking little club down Witworth Street (the venue) still think it's one of the best clubs I've ever been to.

We used to drink in the Salisbury and talk to the street busker (with the big dreds) his name was Jay and his dog was Tay, used to have the most Bizzare stories clearly made up and usually ending with him having a red hot poker rammed up his xxxx

Was very funny though

Have you seen the house with the 2 egyptian statues on the side of it? I think it was on clyde road.

For a curry get a taxi to Rusholme for the Curry Mile

Sorry, got to disagree - Burton Road in 'West' Didsbury has all the best curries, although I've heard good things about EastZEast.

I love going out on tours of manchester.. shame im stuck in this armpit (Reading), at some point we should have a CUK Manchester meet-up

Could be good!

although my favourite pub in Manchester is 'Sinclair's' near the Triangle

Sinclair's used to be my local ( pre IRA bombings ), never heard of the Triangle so it shows how long ago it was. My 'clubs' were the 'Conti' and even grimmer The Cyprus Tavern, I suspect they are long gone now. The Cyprus was decidedly dodgy to put it mildly !

Did anyone else interpret that as an invitation to stay at Chef's after a northern CUK night out?

That's what it sounded like from here...

[Zorba]

Sinclairs...... yikes you are a brave man....

Naah - cheeeeeeeeeep beer!

The living room - I'd be careful with - a diner had to kill a rat with his shoe in there a couple of months ago!!

I'm sure it was a very posh rat, though. Or if not posh, exclusive.

Get a cab to Piccadilly rail station and hop aboard the first train to London: you'll be spoilt for choice.

yes i have, it's on Old Landsdowne road, a mate of mine used to live there for 3 months, the landlady lives in the house aswell, it's VERY weird inside, a stuffed aligator nailed to the wall, weird looking dreamcatcher things everywhere, trinkets from all the landlady's travels.. bizare

The curry mile serves up some of the worst curries i've ever had in my life. Only students, drunk people and complete idiots go there for a curry
