Re: funnies nightclub
was once asked to do a rocknroll disco at funnies! did it regretted it! was asked to do it once a month didn,t do it. think you had to have a degree in armed robbery or be a thug,to fit in there,so its no wonder rindy loved it.

Re: funnies nightclub

Re: funnies nightclub
Went a few times. Not that rough if you could stand up for yourself.
Once went with a group after a Christmas do and for a laugh we took the bosses son! He thought he was being really 'street' or something by coming in but it definitely made him nervous - he gave us a bit more space after that.

Re: funnies nightclub
Got to say the Top Hat was theeeeeee last resort..as you say..them stairs were only a few steps.. but with two big ****** waiting at the bottom it seemed more like a lifetime..as Neil Armstrong said.."one small step for mankind...but a bloody great leap when you are in trouble"

Lol, no way!
In my defence I did work in fashion, and did know a lot of models.

I actually only went about five times, when I was up from London.
The girl I said it to could have been a model.
I didn't go around saying it to everyone.
I thought it was great, everyone was really friendly/or perhaps just really drunk.
