Ashton Nightlife (circa 2000)

[waterloo blue]

I remember my brother accidently setting fire to some womans hair with his cig in Chaplins.
Is the old barn still there?

Haha!

Nah it looks like it turned into a Chinese.
Well I've had a few takeaways from there in my time.

Got thrown out the Friday night 'disco' at The Witchwood' in 2000 for jumping on the stage during 'This Charming Man' - a few minutes after being warned for jumping on the stage during a song I forget!

I think you are right mate, never went in but when i was a kid i'm sure it was called Nelsons. Then had a few name changes after that, one of which was Bar XS.

Went in Molly Malones only once. Glass threw upstairs from the other side of the pub, smashed against the wall and a piece got into a girls eye in our group!

Not sure if Blues is still open. A friend told me his mate went home with a 70yo lass from there one night, he was 23...

Also a story about people getting knifed in the back NYE in Atomic one year as big ben went off, not sure if this is true though a few told the same story over the years.
