Where the hell is Zoo Bar? Should I read too much into the name of the place? MUST GO TO POPSTARZ SOON! You ever spin in there?

Just go See X3 anyway and make up your own mind. That is just my opinion. With all the bad things you are either prepared for the worst or will be pleasantly surprised...

Yeah! Why am I not invited either? Yes I know I'm in the Northwest but the sentiment still counts!!!

No I'm not having a housewarming JUST for you to trash the place! The house-warming will be a quiet, sit-down to dinner affair. The Wrecking will come when i move out and bugger off to Australia...

I should be pretty flexible as I only usually go there on my own as my friends in London are more G.A.Y types or I go with them and they leave about 1am (I'm the type that likes to stay till the end...

So yeah I'll take you up on that...

Well I worked for 2 years to save up to go so it wasn't luck!

If all goes to plan (which it usually doesn't) I'd be off in October...
Hopefully go there for a year....

And references to Strugz's knowledge of wood is definitely suitable tea-with-the-vicar conversation material....

With me, it's called 'frustration'...

I feel like chucking my computer through the window at work...

Know the feeling mate....perhaps we could do it together?

Although to be fair...wasting time online is probably the only thing that gets me through the day!

Or we could swap targets. You come to my place of work at and chuck a computer at my boss and I'll do the same for your boss. It'll appear unrelated and won't be traced back to us....

I did actually believe I was God once... (I was on mushrooms at the time - explains it really...)

We all went out clubbing and the place looked like it was done up for a halloween party - all the reds were redder, all the balcks were blacker and it looked like fake cobwebs were scattered around the place...

Being rather paranoid that I would see things and make an arse of myself I told next to a table not really moving for about an hour but the hour felt like eternity. And I came to think that since I had been standing there since the dawn of time I was in fact The Creator - come down in the body of a human to watch my 'minions' at play.

But then I started getting depressed that after tonight I would have to go back up to heaven and leave all the friends I had made on Earth behind... As the effects wore off I started to think I wasn't God but Jesus... After that I decided to leave all my material possessons and earthly desires behind and become a missonary in Africa.

Then the next day I woke up and when to work...

Yeah I hit a member of staff in the face as he was wheeling a cart of empty beer glasses around the nightclub I was at. It was his fault I tried to stay in the far corner of a wide open area of the club ad he walks into ME! Plus I was spinning with my eyes closed as well...

How did Sam react?
