I remember Central Park next door to Ritzy/Ikon, was a pund a pint, and I used to get in when I was 15. I'd get a tenner off me mam, drink 10 pints and follow through when I got home, what a cycle. They used to have competitions in Central Park on the stage, "who's got the biggest cock", loads of daft cunts but go up and whoever had the biggest cock won the drink. Some DJ commenting on cocks. I didn't get up like....

 

Central Park was closed down once because the lasses dancing (in swim costumes) were handling bottles as well as howking their costumes out of their cracks, various people came down with mouth infections. That said, this may have been an urban myth, but it was enough to stop me going :lol:

Nar its true it is true that, I remember the crack.

Whilst undoubtedly a shit hole, as a 17 year old the Ritzy was the toon's most reliable meat market.

 

I remember taking a lass up to the settees upstairs for some heavy petting (f1ngering). I momentarily took my pinky out and by the time I went back (a matter of seconds) some Asian kid who was sat on the edge of the settee had spotted an opportunity too good to miss and had a couple of digits in there himself.

 

I batted his hand away and carried on where I left off... Never did tell her.

Went to a couple of foam parties around '98 at ikon. Full of people in Yellow YSL shirts, stripey jumpers and Base shoes with buckles on the front. We came out at 2am and some kid asked me mate for a tab. He said 'Sorry, I don't smoke', the kid said 'Are you taking the piss out of me' and punched him.

 

Aaaah, happy days!

Glue Sniffers

Class bit of grafitti I remember from when I was a youngun is 'Brunswick Glue'. :lol:

Another 80's thing for me was Parishes toy department, happy days.

 

My gran used to drag me there and spend her "funny money", cant remember it exactly but they had their own cash tokens or something.

 

As pubs go, its when I first fell in love with the Broken Doll around 1989

 

Tippex Thinner sniffing & kids not being allowed to buy it

 

Breakdancing on Sat afternoons down at the Ritzy

Cowgate Roundabout getting legal graffiti

 

White dog shite

 

Betamax

 

Mojo's

 

Rubber keyed spectrum

 

Tape to Tape copying

 

5p bus into town

Tiffany's :lol:

I remember the big deal when the bus fare went up from 5p to 10p btw :(

The Oxford when Rob W was a youngun

 

Aye yeah was Tiffany's, I couldnt remember so I just stuck in Ritzy :lol:

Always hated it me, think I had one good night in there and that was cos I was on a really good pill. Was called Ikon after Ritzy, fuck knows what it is now. There was this kid at school black kid and we all went out for a sixth form piss up there, and in the upstairs seating bit it was so fuckin dark, I says where's fuckin Johnson, and someone pointed he's owa there, all I seen was this floating pair of teeth on the other side.

 

Johnson? Fuck off :(

 

Fucking crying here....Johnson? :icon_lol:

Wide availability of cheap weed more or less finished solvent / glue sniffing I reckon. The glueys used to be fucking scary like.

 

Aye, would have to agree with that, seemed like the next natural step.

 

P.S I'm on crack cocaine now, hoping to take it up to the final rung on the ladder by xmas.

I do remember sitting on those sofa's necking on with some lass after having a skin full. Rolled a joint and offered it around but no one wanted any (yeah odd for there I know). Finished it off myself thinking I was clever. Kept necking on and every time I did the room started to spin. Went to the bogs, puked up all over the place (not the worst whitey I've had by far ~ thats another story) went back and carried on where I left off. ;)

Them foam parties were shit ;) I went to one in Ibiza and it was class, easily 6-7ft of foam and about 1ft of water at the base (obv one of the clubs with the sunken floor, es paradis maybe?) was gutted when I came out and it had ruined my tabs though. When I seen Ikon were doing them I went along. We left pretty sharpish. I've seem more foam in the bog after a piss than what they used at Icon :)

That fucking smell she looks like a geordie

The adams family started when Gazza farted

Geordie girls are generally much prettier than most in the UK, she looks like she's from Wayaaaaals. It's because genetically without sounding like Hitler people from Tyneside are the best on this island. The biggest and the tallest.

 

Scouse people are amongst the ugliest imo, but I think it's not just scouse it's the whole North West has Britain's ugliest people. It's poor diet and genes, I mean the average height of a scouser bloke must be what 5ft7. Not one body and face represents an area better than Ian Brodie does his.

Agree to an extent with some of what Renton says but I still enjoyed it. Always good to see Bones off Operation Good Guys as well ;)

 

My enjoyment of boxing has increased tenfold since Mark Burdis became the announcer for Frank Warren's fights :)

I thought it was an ok episode - I'll judge it when the series has finished tbh.

 

You could clearly tell last night's episode was just about piecing the characters together and telling a story of what they'd be getting up to for the last three years.
