Pozition isn't bad I don't think, there's plenty of choices of music and its pretty big too. Spiders is still going but once I got to 17 I felt too old to be in there and there's ChiChi on North Bridge but that's mainly for private parties. You're right though, for a city the size of Hull the nightlife isn't great at all, even compared to somewhere like Huddersfield.

depends what you are comparing it to, did you ever go to LA's when it very first opened?, or Heaven and Hell (I think it was actually something else when it first opened) Pozition is awful in comparison.

I'm only 20 so LA's and Heaven & Hell had shut by the time I started going out, so I can only properly compare it to the clubs in Hull and Huddersfield.

then I understand what you're saying, of the places you've been Pozition is probably on a par.

Those were the days. Must admit until I thought about it I didnt realise just how many clubs have been and gone, although Henrys was a hole its another club thats long gone (did it used to be rumours originally).

I know its nothing special but I've been out in other places as well and I've never been anywhere that's completely blown away compared to Pozition. I think you can have a good night anywhere if you're with the right people.

Shame about LA's (Tiffanys/Peppermint Park) as was a great place in its hey day with Luckys upstairs. Heaven & Hell originally opened as 'Fez' IIRC.
Not forgetting Bali H'ai & Odyssey on George St, although the latter had just closed as I started going out but my sister had been in there a few times when it was part of the circuit.

I think it was Ritzy before Fez and then Heaven and Hell
and you're right, it's George Street not Bond Street
