    Ha, none taken, half of them I liked, I'd expect a wide range on here, and some really old ones that I wouldn't know.

    The Philharmonic was my usual Friday night out in the centre then onto the wine press or Montys in Charles street

    Alternative night out in Neros was a blast too !

    Finish the night off with a T Bone Steak in El Grecos in Caroline Street in the wee small hours.

    Monty’s, Philharmonic, Upstairs in the Crooked Stairs, the club opposite that was below ground level (can’t remember its name), all of the Brains pubs in town, the Cowbridge Road pub crawl, the Butchers in Canton, never was one for the bigger clubs like the Rank, but didn’t mind Titos.

    Dorothy’s or El Greco’s to finish the night off.

    Royal George/Claude/Albany then Dowlais/Bank/Fatso's/Jackson's/Casablanca, depending on my mood and friends. The Casablanca could be a bit scary at times though 😂
