It was the Erimus when it first opened.
The Lion and Falcon was also inside. Down the stairs next to WHSmiths.

@swordtrombonefish looks like our paths may have crossed. Big question is.....which night of the week for The Kirk? Only Friday for me, loved it in there!

We did Fridays, best night by a mile. Tried a few other nights but it never seemed the same.
We also did Tuesdays at Hardwick Hall or 'grab a granny night' as it was known
Only days I stayed in back then were Sundays and Wednesdays!

Whenever I hear Uncertain Smile by The The or this song, I am taken straight back there.......

 
We used the Dragonara casino sometimes after finding out members got free toasties so we sometimes used it for free food whilst watching MOTD. Eventually barred when they realised we didn't spend any money
 
Loads on here seem to go to loads of bars on a night out? That seems well inefficient to me.

If out all night we would have probably done 2-3 pubs before 11pm, then just hit a club.

Nowadays it's more like 1 pub in town and then a late bar.

in those days you only had 1 pint per pub it was the done thing. still do it now to a lesser extent

How long ago we talking, I'm talking from about 98 onwards I suppose.

Although, saying that, when I did drink with an older crowd we did do more pubs, although on the other hand it could just be one pub and nowhere else.

I recall some nights starting in the central about 7ish, and then going to a few pubs, but it was never more than 4/5, and that was out with big drinkers. Plus clubs seemed to close earlier back then and a lot seemed to just cane it from 7pm-11pm and then go home hammered.
