    Gary Lineker's Mum made my christening (Sp?) cake.

    My claim to fame (however lame).

    shame if it has .. used to hang out there a lot - i'd like to say lots of good memories ... but unfortunately ... I can't remember all that much ... tiger bitter (growl at barmaid whilst ordering) , old original? mmm .. twas a nice place ... not the tulipty attitude you get at the 'towny' clubs - like mmm krystals?

    one of my friends who I shared a flat with in leicester died last year so it sort of has a special thing for me ... got back there a couple of years ago whilst going to another friends wedding ... bought her a t shirt to remind her of the place as it was her wedding a month or so later ... she died 8 months ltr



    as for that link ...

    You know every nightclub in Leicester by a previous name.
    sector 5 / alcatraz ....they used to do these amazing cocktails - acid rain, f15, etc ... amazing til I had one whilst almost sober .. yuck ...


    there was the bear cage - I used to refer to it as the beer cage ... once in we could never find the way out .. like a maze ..

    some other place that used to stay open til 5am once a month ...

    You call people "mardy". - think that's more east midlands than leicster - derby/nottingham/lincoln etc

    You've actually been into the Gas Museum on Aylestone Road. ... used to work for british gas in leicester .. almost went in once.....


    You get a craving for a TJ's when out drinking in other towns.
    was introduced to TJ's my first week at leicester uni ... still remember!

    You don't know anyone who hasn't been to Skeggy.
    leicester by the sea .... went to skeg recently .. beach is pretty big and clean ... sea looks blue !!!

    If I am desperate ( read when I get desperate ) I can register at some dating site. Easy stuff. So many chicks in there are awaiting bang-bang. Having started recently contracting I am still veryyyyyy busy trying to understand what the heck I got myself into and what the heck am I doing. Love it so far.

    I did a 3 month stint in Leicester and most people I met kept telling me about the thriving gay community (alas not my scene although I'm never one to turn down a trip to a gay club in the hope I'll see a couple of hot women going for it ).

    If you decide to bat for the other team your luck will probably be in 2uk .
