Give CT a shout for tips. I think he started building one of these in 1997

Jesus titty-fucking wept. Incidentally, to give you an idea of what I mean, this is a typical Tiki bar: And this is the one that's just opened in New York:

They must have a decent side then. The only team lower ranked than them in the tournament are, er, Russia.

Also shows they aren't homophobic

There's this new Tiki bar (calm down, fist "Tiki") opened in New York. So fuck? I bet you're thinking. Anyway, Tiki culture doesn't refer to actual Polynesian culture. It's more an American take on it which first became popular in the 30's and thrived until the 50s/early 60s before more or less dying out in the 70s. It started becoming popular again in the 90s and is quite big now (although unsurprisingly there aren't many of them in Newcastle). I just like some of the drinks tbh. Anyway, on reading the article about it on Liquor.com I got to thinking that it looked like a hotel reception more than a Tiki bar. Then I got to the final paragraph and it pointed out they'd downplayed the look of the bar for fear of criticism over cultural appropriation. I mean, apart from the fact the whole movement is about that, has it really come this? Tiki bars are supposed to be OTT and kitsch. That's the point. Are people such fucking killjoys? I mean, I guess they are but it just seems so fucking ridiculous. I guess being in New York might have something to do with it

I've read about him before. Complete fucking loon

I fail to see how that makes it ok (which I assume is what he was getting at).

Aye, there's few things look worse than a fat bloke in a football top

Just a desperate attempt to somehow eke 200 words out of the 'story' I think
