We’ve gone crazy at Goodbye Blue Monday. Tonight only, if you wear your old hair to the bar your first drink is on us…
We love collecting useless shit. For example, the beekeepers hat. When we found it on the street, we put it over the lamp in the corner and it looked really cool. It was also handy to make angry staffmembers wear it on Saturday nights to stop them spitting in the faces of rude customers. Oh, the [...]
Dear fan. Sorry I haven’t written in a while. I have been very busy. Still no word on who has been smashing toilet walls. Anyhow, we are now a year old and I think a comment a customer made this evening sums it up. “This place is better than the bar in Antarctica.” We celebrated [...]

How is it that I have gone so long with a scatological obsession and not known about this gem? After a discussion with staff [...]
A hugely successful games night with Big Geoff taking out the 6pm table tennis tournament and Damian thrashing all comers later in the evening. Chess was sadly dominated by Guhan who has a thing or two to learn about humility. Make sure if you are into chess that you come down at 9pm on Wednesdays as [...]
Somebody put this up outside the bar. I thought it was very funny.
