I was akso in foundry on NYE and was disgusted at the amount of 15-16 year olds in there (before anyone gets upset, i KNEW some of them were that age) Felt like a teenage disco! Made me uncomfortable to be honest.
Ridiculous that the bouncers were leaving them in! If I had a son/daughter getting into a nightclub at that age id ask serious questions about the place! ID or not, surely common sense should prevail.

What is ridiculous is that parent´s allow their 15/16 year old out until all hours and then blame everybody else when it all goes wrong,i.e pregnant,arrested or end up in hospital getting their stomach pumped.Late night venues are no place for under 18´s .

I havent checked the exchange rate in a while but it used to be much cheaper than that!

Yep couldn't believe it myself when I checked it so checked it 2 or 3 times just to make sure!! Fairly shocking alright!!

Somewhere that nearly always has a tv on tbh.

Woodman always works for me.

kryogen · 20-01-2012 1:38am

Woodman is a grand spot if your wanting a quiet pint on your own, Grimes' also.

giles lynchwood · 20-01-2012 2:16pm

+1 for the woodman,staff are very friendly and bar is spotless and warm.

Potential-Monke · 20-01-2012 8:01pm

The Tap Room, Gingerman and Woodman are great spots for a quiet drink.

PTH, I almost always go on my own for a few, know a few people around town so between bouncers and customers I feel relatively safe, though I would go anywhere alone..

Ive always liked the kazbar, easy to get to the bar and be recognised by the staff/repeat orders etc.. anyhoo have a large bottle for us this weekend :P

I remember i was in escape ages back and my gf noticed girls from her sister class in school there were 13-14years old and go out regularly and they didn't shy away from the much older guys in the place id rather sit in a pub somewhere then go to a night club

A member of Harveys staff told me that the place is closing soon for " renovations"

Whats the story with that place did it go into receivership after?

ziedth · 28-01-2012 12:21am

it's not that I don't believe anyone who said so but I have deleted all posts relating to the rumor of a closed venue. I see it's on facebook too so if and when we have a confirmed link I'll put back up the last few posts. I appreciate any co-operation as I'm sure you wouldnt want to find out here if you were involved with the place.

As usual if you have any questions PM me.

Thanks.

Would a picture of the locksmith with his van suffice

There is a security guard there tho so maybe I could be wrong

How does a locksmith make a rumour of a closure true?

Well I heard of someone then the locksmith came along and they didnt open last night, they also only appear to be opening up now which is weird they are normally open from ten. There is something going on but I cant say what I think on here unless I got proof.

edit: People getting turned away and door closed again

ziedth · 28-01-2012 12:42am

without a link to another site we don't post up these kind of rumors. It's just the way we do it. For what it's worth I believe you but like I said it's mainly for those involved with the venue.

It could just be renovations only reason I am guessing other wise was because of them going into receivership back a while ago. Just a bit weird when rumours start going around the locksmith comes and they are not opening, which is not rumour anyone who drives past or is in town can see.

They might be opening now, I wont comment again until the night is over because I might be jumping the gun.

leduke · 28-01-2012 1:24pm

can anyone confirm if harveys was open last night or know for certain if they are open tonight?

AdMMM · 28-01-2012 1:49pm

According to their Facebook they're still alive and kicking...

ziedth · 28-01-2012 1:59pm

Just goes to show. I saw it on a couple of peoples Facebook that they were locked up tight. Perfect example of why we can't discuss these kind of things.
