  1. Can't reveal the new name because it's top secret, and only a handful of people know it.  There are various rumours circling, which we are ultimately the source of, but whether anyone chooses to believe those or not is entirely their call ;)

     

    Most of the other changes have slowly implemented over the course of the past 5 years, and although the toilets have been taken in an entirely new direction, the rest of the building resolutely remains a dive bar (in the true context of dive).  

    We've always targeted the students to some extent, and were fixture at the student fayers until last year, when we reached the point of demising returns and decided to invest our marking budget into live music instead.  There are no plans whatsoever to turn the place into a dedicated student bar, except perhaps on the morning of the 1st of April 2016, when one shall be erected on the site of our former absinthe distillery.

     

    Am aware of various other rumours floating around, none of them accurate.  Happy to answer any questions, so fire away!

     

    Why are you never in when I am in the bar?

     

    Do you still sell panini's?

     

    Why did the open mic end on Sundays?

     

    Do you still sell the sister drink to Hefe or was that discontinued?

     

    What other Fruit Beers do you sell other than Fruli?

     

    Do you still look at the Jukebox thread for suggestions/ do you still update the Jukebox?

     

    Why don't you post on these forums as much as you did back in it's heyday 2004/2005?

     

    One of your staff are organising a 1 day music festival in Insch, Is there a Facebook/Website where I could find out more about this? Also what is this guys name? (He only works on a Tuesday)

     

    I would also like to say since I haven't had the chance to meet you in person that you have an awesome bar with honest down to earth staff. I have not found this in any other bar where you could actually have a conversation with the bar staff and not get weird looks. I also like how you can come by yourself and not get weird looks. Great atmosphere even when it's empty. Hopefully I will meet you one day when your in the bar.

  2. Good to see the secret is out although I do disagree with the plans to have student offers, chart music etc. Preparing to become part of a chain etc.

     

    Changing it's name to: T In The Pub.

  3. Because everyone hates you.

    Well I went in to the pub tonight and asked about Flash. I learned that he is currently preoccupied with the renovations and changes including one MASSIVE change. It's not been officially announced and I don't think he/she was supposed to tell me behind the bar. It's going to be very controversial with the regulars. Since Flash is still active on this forum and out of respect as to not ruin the surprise I will not reveal the change. I look forward to the massive debate on this forum.

     

    I will give you a clue though: It's not changed in the 50 years The Moorings have been open. 

  4. An I too boring to think pubs are far more enjoyable than nightclubs?

     

    No, your not. In fact your absolutely correct. Sadly pubs in this city are not aloud to open very late well except for Moorings.

     

    I also go with the loose chance that I might pull but sadly this never happens.

  5. lol NO

    it would make it more interesting some funny things might happen

    the street view makes the place look like a ghost town

     

    I don't even remember posting this.

     

    On another note the street view has now updated several times and you can now see Union Square. It has been updated so that you can now see inside some buildings such as Codona's, G Casino and the now closed Tiger Tiger. It also enables you to go back in time to previous street

    view's. 

     

    I neg rep'd myself because I now disagree with suing Google.

  6. You couldn't offend if you tried, you harmless wee scamp.

    I am a big motherfucker in person. People get intimidated by me on the street because they could not take me. Little do they know that I am actually a good person and don't get into fights. The ironic thing is they welcome skinny Glaswegian neds with open arms. 

  7. Did anyone actually even like Wheatus at the time? Nevermind 15 years on.

     

    They get regular play on radio, nightclubs and at the carnivals. Surprised they are not playing the AECC when smaller acts that gets less play such as Simply Red, Texas and The Proclaimers are playing there. ;)

  8. So you're really willing to stand there through a full set of nothingness just to hear Teenage Dirtbag live? Are you even old enough to want to just on that particular nostalgia train?

     

    xx

     

    Do you think everyone that goes to see Black Sabbath, Madness and Paul McCartney were old enough to remember them the first time round? You don't need to have listened to a song when it came out to like a song.

     

    I also like there other material hence why I have bought a ticket. Just because you don't like them does not matter. I don't slag off half the shit you go to see so don't do the same to me.

     

    Oh and I know people younger than me going too. It's called gaining new generations of fans. It's happens all the time.

  9. what is this i dont even

     

    Basically I got someone who had been cast in Coronation Street sacked from their job and it was all over the newspapers and TV news. I also got someone hired who would not have otherwise have been there. So if you watch Coronation Street the person playing Bethany is only played by her because of me.

  10. Aye?

    Do go on.

     

    It's been all over the media this year basically the ITV press release said that she was 19 but there was things online saying she was 25 so I went on a forum and started a thread asking why there was confusion over the age. She was going to be playing 14 year old Bethany Platt so I thought that maybe ITV was trying to trick us but no she had lied about her age and ITV sacked her. I had about 23 pages worth of abuse towards me even though it was not me in the wrong. People saying things like I get a thrill out of doing things like this when everyone knows the producers don't actually read forums. A replacement actress was found in the 19 year old actress Lucy Fallon who would not be on screen without me.

     

    So to clear this up, despite what others think I did not go out of my way to destroy her career. As an actor myself I would not do this to another on purpose. Bottom line though she did lie about her age and a 25 year old playing a 14 year old is a bit mad

    Tons more articles on-line just search her name in Google. It was picked up by most places such as BBC, ITV, The Sun, Daily Express etc.
