The day I realised I was old.
I'd gone to Fabric with some friends for one reason or another and found myself constantly lost in the maze of rooms, stairwells, corridors and, at one point, what I hope was a unisex toilet as there were far too many women in there for it to be the gents.

It was as I struggled through a writhing mass of sweaty bodies in a vain attempt to find even a vaguely familiar face that I paused and took in my surroundings. There must have been several hundred drunken youths occupying just this one room and a thought occurred to me:

"What if there were a fire? By god we'd be crucified without any hope of escape".

I stuck to the edges from there on and glanced nervously about me, stamping out any carelessly discarded cigarette ends and tidying away anything that represented a potential fire hazard.

I may have taken a few too many narcotics in my youth, but I'm sure it was my relatively advanced years that were to blame for my new found caution.

I've never been anywhere even remotely similar since, and not least because I despise the music and the people and the cost of the beer and the fact that I can't hear myself think, for god's sake.......

Fabric would be bearable
if they let about half the amount of people in. It used to be a good club but it's just full of trendy cunts and students and people who found it in their Lonely Planet, and it's always SO full!

It made me want to shit.
Even though I was there with very good friends and drank myself into oblivion, I still despised the place and left after a shamefully brief amount of time.

It was balls.

I like this...
therefore I clicked.

I'm a little concerned though about the suggestion that the club was legion to an Elemental & Sacrificial Religion, are the Council aware of this?

And is nailing people to a cross really the swiftest way to appease a Fire God? :P
