Recommended Posts

Lots of timely news and humour as usual. One hundred Monkeywatch reports, eh? Here's to another hundred!

Sorry that XZone and Blues Factory both closed.

XZone was good for a bit of depravity, the sort of thing the Walking St tourists came to see, but never did.

Blues Factory, must have had high overheads, with not enough customers to meet them.

Blues Factory closed on July 20th mate.

Apologies for the error Dave.

 

All the best for the future and I hope the BF will live on under new ownership. :thumbup

A good humorous read as always and appreciate all your efforts.....100 monkeys, that's a sizable troop!!

Sad news about XZone and the Blues Factory.....both were regular haunts on my trips. Times they are a changing.

Keep up the sterling work. :chogdee

As always, excellent work – Happy 100!

 

A minivan carrying Indian tourists crashed on its way from Suvarnabhumi Airport after the driver fell asleep at the wheel. Reports say that 27 of the tourists were injured in the crash, but the majority escaped unscathed.

 

 

This is reminiscent of the recent story from Bombay - sorry Mumbai. They introduced a new system with the buses; instead of ‘pay as you enter’ it was ‘pay as you leave’. But they had to abandon the scheme after three days – they ran out of empty buses.

 

Edit in: Also works if you substitute Bombay/ Mumbai with Glasgow.
