The HoneyClub is good SOMETIMES, authough I haven't been since around Christmas time, the Gloucester is another good club...I can't really complain about the pub club scene, especially when there are easily 10 within quite literally 1 minute walk of my flat (I live next to the station).

Oh, I almost forgot, our city website is pretty bangin'!
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

While working for a lame company before I got my new job, I redesigned my town's (unofficial) website.

And when the hell did Pooh bear move from the hundred-acre wood to America?

edit | A bit of research shows that Milne's son (Christopher Robin) had a toy bear that he named 'Winnie' because of a bear in London Zoo that came from Winnipeg.
So, there we are.
I think thats how the story goes... :P

There is a statue of that bear somewhere in the city, I've never seen it though...
