I met my missus in Fabric, and she's a copper. Funnily enough though, it was the first and last time she ever went!

So why do you need a club, not like the pubs stop at 11 o clock these days?
Where? Haha

All pubs and bars close at 1am Friday Saturday, 12pm weekdays.

Its only nightclubs/strippers/casinos that are open after 1am at weekends!

If I am back in the sticks at my folks, the pubs do lock-ins though

I don't get the pricing stratigies, in most clubs around here you're looking at £4 for a bottle of beer so I get bladdered in Spoons beforehand, get one drink in the club and nurse it all night. Total spend £4

If it was £2.50 for a bottle i'd go in the club earlier and buy 10, total spend £25

Doesn't make sense to me.

don't forget your entry fee before you've even got your £4 drink

Dont ever buy bottles in clubs, pints are cheaper and you get more
£4 ish for a bottle of magners, pint strongbow, £3 ish.
The fecking restauraunts these days are just as expensive, i got me and the mrs 2 small bottles of dandelion and burdoch from the waterman pub in warwick area, we went on the bike, £2.80 each wasnt even half a pint.
Nearly fecking died when i heard the price of them, fair to say we only had one.
Considering its a biker pub in the summer, the soft drinks are the same price as alcohol, where is the incentive not to drink there ?
Robbing cnuts.
At a mates wedding in 2007 it was in a hotel, £8.50 for a double JD and coke !!
