SpiderPete   10 #1144 Posted February 2, 2014 It was never a stalwart - peripheral at best.   I have to agree here with you.  I cannot wait for it to open as Mullberry tavern, already has better choices of drinks and you never know we might get some heating now.

Roger123W Â Â 10 #1148 Posted February 3, 2014 Well while it is sad to see Affinity go I will not be too sorry - yes towards the last 12 months it has been freezing in there and the choice of beer has been dire and I cannot wait to see how the new Boardwalk turns out. Â It is also an interesting observation to make that places like Icons and Dempseys that let Tia Anna perform are thriving as they support diversity on the gay scene whereas a place like Affinity which in the past has banned Tia Anna and would not let her perform on the closing night, has gone to the wall anyway ..... interesting !!
