It could be the Retro Bar, but when Northern Monkey posed the question, I presumed he meant Comptons in Soho - as visited a couple of years ago by me and a fellow Fruitchatter - where I made the mistake of going into the Gents while he was playing the OAR and got the fright of my lifeIstenem wrote:yikesNorthern Monkey wrote:When it boxes were worth playing I unwittingly strayed into a big gay bar in central London to wander out and bump straight into a colleague one lunchtime (he wasn't on his way in). What do you say - hi mate I've got something to tell you
A I spend all of my spare time slamming round bars playing coin operated amusements
B I really do have something to tell you
I suspect that the second option is much mote tolerable in the modern employment world.
Isty (and not casting aspersions) will know the place I mean.![]()
i guess you mean the retro bar behind the strand. i went in there with my (gay female) cousin last week and it seemed very couply. the only other time i've been in for a drink was with six (straight female) workmates and a drag queen from the royal opera house. fortunately, as Londoners we are in a position to be fussy. mind you, that gay bar off carnaby street is fine, i don't feel awkward playing in there (unless i have to wince through one of their pints). i often walk through soho but wouldn't walk under a rainbow to get to a machine.
whats the the funniest thing u have done just to play
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

Gay bars are the best possible location for anything (Providing you feel comfortable going in). For 1 most people seem scared for whatever reason to go in them so whatever you find is generally flying, 2, gays tend to play more than straights from what ive seen and generally dont have a notion what they are doing. And 3 theyre not as 'fire'
