Massive Storm Headed To The UK - Hearing Rumors.. - GoFuckYourself.com

EddyTheDog · 10-25-2013, 07:29 AM

I know you shouldn't believe everything you hear on the net, but people are starting to talk about it being worse than 1987...

It is coming that is for sure - We will see how bad it is Monday morning.....

v4 media · 10-25-2013, 07:37 AM

I remember the 87 storm, milk bottles flying past my head at about 4 in the morning when I stumbled home stoned. Thought fuck its a bit windy. Walked past Chalkwell Park and the trees started coming down.

Chalkwell Park was a mess - In fact most of the town was pretty fucked up...

I take it you are from Southend?..

I think you mentioned it before, I have a bad memory.....

I've heard the UK is going to get some pretty bad rain over the weekend, but nothing major has been mentioned on the news...

The problem is that we only get this very rarely - So the trees, infrastructure etc. are not tested every year like it is in Florida - So we get a good storm and all hell breaks loose - Like it did in 1987...

I left when I was 16 - Its a fucking dump - I still have some family their so I have to visit occasionally...

I went to Thorpe Bay High - Left in '86.....

I worked at The Ship and The Foresters on the front for a while - Scary pubs but fun to work in when you are in your 15/16 years old - lol...

Belfairs left in 87.
The pubs on the front were pure hell. Most of the time I`d go to the Pink Toothbrush in Railegh or Reggae night at the blueboar. Funk nights at High Society would see me down the front on a Saturday night, trying to avoid the TOTS wankers in their chinos.

I was more into the Top Alex - I used to go to High Society on gay nights.....

Oh the memories - Most of them bad - lol...

In The Ship next door it was plastic 'glasses' only so the customers couldn't kill each other with them...

Ashtrays fixed to the tables and tables fixed to the floor for the same reason - Fun times.....

We had bodyguards for staff when we went home - No kidding...

I used to spend a good amount of time at the Intrepid Fox before it moved off Wardour Street to the weird venue it is in now.

yeah, I went to the new venue a year or two back just for old times sake and to see what the new place was like but it wasn't the same - not dingy enough.

Yup but you can always go buy a Byron burger in the old Fox. Sigh. My other hang out was the Ben Crouch Tavern a street or so down. That closed a few months before I left the UK>

Great club.. the one parents were always scared off.

no dresscode either which for Southend made a change.

Used to put on great concerts. I saw alot of the 80's hiphop acts there, and the bad manners boxing day concerts were legendary.

Relaxed drug policy aswell.
