    Almost sure it was called Rascals side the Catholic club and along from where the Angels lived. Joplings usually had their big social night of the year there. Was some canny Noterianni there to get stuck into.

    Talking in a non gay wey here but I wasnt aware that there was a gay night in the central. I walked in the back door with my mates and my cousin had walked in with his mates thru the front door. Anyway I heard he had had Superman tattoed on a certain part of his anatomy. Spies him and shouted "cuz show is ya cock then" he just dropped his trolleys and had superman arms outstretched on the underside of his c*ck. From about 10 yards away it looked a magnificent tattoo and if I had a c*ck like me cuz I wouldnt have cared about dropping my trolleys either.
    Anyway he got a few taps that night.

    Yes been in there. Actually entered a quiz in there the winning prize being a bottle of beer each for the winning team. Anyway we won some spotty little oiks complained and we were cheated out of our beers. A few bust noses, broken jaws and a bit claret to wipe up later saw us ejected. Great laugh at the time but realized for the sake of a 30 bob bottle of beer we went just a tad overboard.
