That sounds like a great idea!

well, its not as bad as a play like, say, leicester. that city really does need demolishing.

to be fair, i've only ever been to wolves at night, and each time parked in a ghetto. strangely the ghetto seemed to consume much of the city. the inner city itself wasn't nice or very aesthetically pleasing. it seemed to be the country's capital for angry middle aged men, like a giant wetherspoons.

the trick is that after you have a few bus tickets, you simply cut off numbers from previous days then stick them over the top. or use a pen, a 3 becomes and 8 and a 5 becomes a 6 very easily. thats what i did a few months ago in my darkest days of student poverty. that way, you're still kicking 'the man' in the balls, but in a more intelligent way, and you don't feel quite as cheap.

I took my girlfriend to wolves once. The bus journey was over an hour, there were big fat men talking about prison whilst smoking illegal substances.

Once I got there, it was better than Walsall, but that's really the only compliment i could give it.
Still after an Elliot Minor concert (yeah i have odd friends/tastes) some girl wolf-whistled me

any way

it's a 96% dump

Are you hanging around for the band afterward Lindz or heading straight home? Anyway, depending how long it all takes and which Car Park I actually end up deciding to use if anyone else is about around the same time I don't mind making the walk back to the car park with them. I'd rather use the CP directly opposite to be honest if I knew for certain it doesn't shut after a certain time after midnight or something. Does anyone know the actual closing time for that CP if it has one?

No worries! All I really need to know is if I can leave my car in the car park opposite the Civic's entrance after the gig cos everyone's usually streaming out afterwards so don't know if they close it after a certain point. Don't know if it is manned all night or what. Might try the phone number I found on Yell.com.

Will you let us know if you find out about the carpark? I'd love to wait around for the band, but don't want to be stranded on my own!
