However I am hearing through the grapevine HSB (and all RLD smoking bars - Batavia, Excalibur, Stones etc) are no longer allowing smoking of any form?

Re: Hill Street Blues
I went in on Friday night for a bit,
since my usual spot was rammed with people I though I would wait for it to calm down.
I don't normally go to many bars, serving alcohol.
I don't drink anymore.
I had chat with the girl at the bar about the whole smoking ban off/on thing, something about the mayor wanting to change things and a general crackdown on fun. I forget some of it.
I think she preferred it in the "old days"
It was the same girl working there when I went for the first time last year.
It is a bit of a tourist trap now, it has the name and location.
5 euro for a chocomel.
You pay for the experience I guess.
Sitting in a dark pub, smoking weed, getting paranoid and leaving abruptly.
Just like back in 6th form, without the snakebite.
Music is quite loud for me now. really heavy drum n bass
10 years ago I would have enjoyed it a bit more
(and I used to DJ drum n bass)
shit
I am getting old
Just imagine, they have to spend all day working with that madness coming out through the sound system.
That would do my head in

It tasted like Birmingham"
