Hang on, isn't red square the downstairs part of Rio's? and the upstairs part is the Palace?
The Royal admiral was the dodgy joint next door, the cage dancers used to come into Jules after work

Whats this "Palace" you speak of?
If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

Yeah right.
I used to frequent "The Tunnel" underneath the big black building in Grenfell Street. It was good because they used to do $1 shooters
Back in the day, they used to have the shuttle that went between it, and the Mansions, to cater for their less-sober patrons

I went on a Club Cruiser about 12 years ago (I think)... Players, Rios and Big Ticket were three of the venues.

The Botanic The Earl of Zetland - I was there on the final night when they were getting rid of high end scotch for nix. **** i was crook the next day!
