Assuming we"re not railing Rodders then there is a £20 Plus 1 £20 rebuy + 1 add-on for T5,000 @ 8pm at the G if you want it.

I considered the Mint Casino over the road from the Holiday Inn...



but then I saw the size of their bar and thought again.



Still looking.

FFS that would be a terrible use of the Friday night, just make sure one of you have my number so I can

[  ] Come and buy the beers/champaign when I win.
[X] join you when I donk out.

Also don"t forget Ian (Pables) is playing the CoC as well so you can rail us both via those clever phones you all got.

Still trying to think of something amusing to write in this bit.

Looks like the main "strip" in Bolton is Bradshawgate and Nelson Square is in the heart of that area.

Might I suggest we aim for the JD Wetherspoon"s Pub "The Spinning Mule" at Nelson Square, Bolton BL1 1JT which is about a 10 minute walk from the HI down the main drag

[MAP IT]

That should allow us an opportunity to scope out the area.

I have an offer from one of the many bars in Bolton which will be exclusive to us

Its called C2 and it is a relatively new bar on Bradshawgate

Free entry 8pm and open till 4am, and as long as I let the guy know a few days in advance, I can get in certain drinks he doesnt usually stock ( Corona is an obvious Ger), and as long as I give  him party details ( ie in this case APAT), things like trainers not usually allowed will be ok.

Pretty cheap too, shots £1. spirits and mixers £1.50 and all bottles £2

If there"s enough interest, let me know by Weds and I"ll sort it

Season 6 UK Online Winner
Season 6 Member of the winning England team at the WCOAP
Season 6 Member of the England 'B' team, bronze medallists at the Home Internationals

Sounds good Asa - how much for a pint? Smiths or Guinness?

My guess would be that they don"t do pints...bottles only.

Of course, I could be wrong.

That is the sort of market research you want.

Asa will personally go and try every drink that the venue has to offer, just to be sure that it is ready to service the needs of all APATers next weekend.

Much respect.
