Me and the missus used to go to Belrins a few years back, it was free to get in at the time and the choons downstairs we're great (US House i think) It was always chocka.
Then it went right downhill, they started playing chart stuff and charging for the priviledge........so, after that we gave it a wide berth.
Good to hear that its changed again for the better, we'll have to pay a visit next time we're down in Manchester, mind she's pregnant at the minute so it could be a while.....lol
