    Also, it wasn't to my tastes and still isn't.

    Yes, I have seen, and it quite spoils my regular Sunday walk round Fitzroy Park. I was hoping it was temporary at first but it seems to be permanent, and attracting pilgrimages from around the world. If I was still a teenager I'd be tempted to go up there one night and smash it up.

    It's not that bad. I too attended a leaving do there a few weeks ago. Admittedly the amount of alcohol consumed probably dulled the senses slightly

    Of course I don't have to go, but I am friends with the person who is leaving and apparently it is her kind of place, so fair enough but not really for me, Clive. But I have to go as I usually make an effort for leaving dos, though I might bale out after an hour or so. I'm told they do 'two beers for one' which probably means two small bottles of Budweiser for £8.50

    Eh, sorry A. You have my utmost sympathy. You know the only path available to you.

    I too have a leaving do of sorts tonight (leaving to get married) but I am simply not attending.
