    As long as they get rid of the big glass séance table I'll be happy.

    I wandered past last night ... looked like lots of trendy round mirrors and a dance-floor at the back ... but I might be wrong

    Dancefloor? Gah, I hope not. It's bad enough with Karmenz.

    Can anyone remember Cizgi - I think it was where Miso is now. It had a dancefloor - my flatmate and I went in one evening on the way home and she loved all the male attention she got.

    Funny you should mention that place. My other half went to Chapter One last night to check it out, and said it had turned into a slightly glam R n B bar, a bit like Cizgi. I think they may have ruined it. It's also been painted a vile purple colour on the outside, and apparently they've rid of most of the brick on the inside. Shame.

    I popped in on Saturday night for a swift one. I was on my way back from town and was, according to Rocky the doorman, inappropriately dressed (flip flops), but he let us in anyway but 'next time we should make more of an effort'. It appeared to have much the same clientele as before and it looks as if none of the refurb money was spent on the loos. They have these ambient lighting hubcaps things covering most of the walls which display a spectrum of pastel shades. They have freed up lots of space by throwing some of the furniture away which I think is a good thing. It has lost that sort of Chapter One homely feel though, but the staff were lovely, even Rocky the doorman. I'll probably end up going about the same frequency as I did before - not very often. It's not quite as Cizgi as Cizgi though, although I can see what Coletto means.

    Any one know how the new look is doing business wise, there seems to be less bags of bottels outside on a Sunday morning ?

    Still closed . Very annoying . I heard some great tales from my landlady about when it was a top cocktail bar. The local pubs are ok but not for a (newly) single guy . C'mon Chapter Uno!!!!

    Well it's true Arkady, ever since I found out who you really are I do keep bumping into you in the oddest places.

    That's actually quite peculiar, isn't it.  I've actually seen you a few times when you haven't seen me too.  The German Gymnasium on Open House weekend, for instance.<br>

    Site supposed to be a new Woody Grill in Late march or whenever easter is. According to Rocky who used to work there. There was one in FP and still in Camden. run by the Woody Market people I guess. Better than Dixie I bet. I wud have prefered Chapter one )or Two) to come back. It sounds like a jumping joint. Chang.

    A couple of years ago? Are you sure? Anyway, a brand new one has just opened, one street back from the old place.
