    shuuuut! let them get hammered ;)

    considering the little sleep I'd have got in the past 2 night (night on the train between Venice and Vienna, then a couple of hours sleep in a train station after Vienna before getting to Bratislava for the flight home)...10.30pm is fine by me...might send you some of my lodgers though..all but 1 are skipping Nova Rock so will be refreshed ;)

    you might as well be english typing shit like that... standing in a queue is standing in a queue.. whether hungover or not, its still the same thing!!! ;)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    well, i meant that "they" shut the pubs and tubes early so that people don' stay out all night getting pissed and not going to work the next day.

    personally, i'll be out for a few beers on the Sunday evening but i won't be getting pissed as i have an 'early' last rain to get home and i have work on the monday unless i can get the day off (or i "go to Pistoia" (sp?)). either way i don't want to spend all day with a hangover because i'm a southern poof...:)
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

    This thread has made me weep.

    Just go to AKA Bar near Tottenham Court Road. It's cool and open until 5am on Sundays.

    http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/info_Pubbar_61.html

    You can't go wrong with The Langley in Covent Garden either, which is open till 1am. Get there early for some cheap happy hour deals:

    http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/info_Pubbar_4612.html

    If you're staying in Farringdon, the Meet Bar is only five mins walk away and is open until midnight on Sunday:

    http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/info_pubbar_6494.html

    Hope this helps. I'd recommend AKA Bar though, it is cool. And it's next door to a club called The End which has a 24 hour licence.
