Anyone remember what it was called? It was a white building overlooking the roundabout at the top of Corporation Street. If I recall it was next to a secondhand shop. :help:

Cant remember the name of it, but, as I remember, it got closed down by environmental health

Yes, we did the same thing, but usually after a long night in the Fat Cat. I couldn't remember the name of the place because we always referred to it as the 'Sticky Floor', for obvious reasons.

I am not surprised that it was shut down on health grounds although my recollection was that it was demolished and became a car park.

Oh Lord. I will brace myself for the awful truth: what did they use instead of cornflour?

Cheers matey, thats the one. We started reminiscing about nights out and the boozers we used to drink in around that area this afternoon at work and we just couldn't remember what it was called. Its been doing my head in.
