Fight at EDT

[suzplum]

Did anyone else see the horrible fight on fri night? a group of ten or so blokes came storming out of the mens toilets and a couple started whacking each other over the heads with chairs, what a load of idiots.

kerrrrist. sounds bad - what was it all about?

[iamyamyam]

what time was this?

[suzplum]

It was pretty late, just before closing time, really unpleasant. God knows what it was about but it was pretty scary as there were quite a few of them and it was right in front of our table. a horrible end to what had been a really good night unfortunately

[jimmy two times]

Storming out of the toilets? Had they been comparing willy sizes and things gotten out of hand ?

lol @ J T T

[JohnL]

and the bouncers .....

The big one looked mean on Saturday - now I know why :)

just when your faith gets restored in the British public, there's always a few who forget how to have a drink without throwing their toys out.

However, no part of Britain is immune, the rural towns are even worse!

If they get caught by the police they'll be treated fairly harshly, you can be assured. Big crackdown on this stuff over the last 5 years.

You couldnt fit 10 men in the blokes privvy in the EDT. If you did, you couldnt open the door so they couldnt storm out.

Are you are it wasnt 9?

9 men could fit in the privvy, open the door and start a Western Saloon Bar style brawl without a problem.

Brought to mind a track by The Specials, "ghost town" which includes the infamous line, Too much fighting on the dance floor.

Seriously though, I hope everyone was ok.

I think it was probably the 'collective' they're a right tasty firm of keyboard warriors

Been a while since I've seen trouble t'EDT.

ED still a very quiet area in terms of trouble compared to jus about everywhere else though. I'd say new towns are the worst. Pity the reveller in Stevenage or Croydon :-/

[AcedOut]

1 fight in 6 years of living in ED. Hardly a statistical anomaly.

[Brendan]

You see very, very few fights in London considering what a big city it is.

It?s the sleepy suburban small towns where you get the barneys.

[andycam]

it's amazing what the expression 'Your mum' can do to a grown man. Stems from those primary school days, when said statement was delivered with painful authority and the confusion you felt when you tried to figure out what your mum had actually done. Oh the cunning psychology. Lol

[HonaloochieB]

I used to find "your sister kissed a tramp in the park" an effective catalyst for a good donnybrook.

[andycam]

I believe the expression "Your dad has had more bums than a toilet seat" was always a starter of a good old dingdong. Well seeing that it kicked off in a toilet with 10 men.... maybe that was the case. And the dad in questions son was suitably offended and decided that a fight with some chairs was the way to go as the toilet that started it was bolted down.

[DrDom]

Your mum's had more pricks than a second hand dart-board.

[andycam]

Well DrDom... your momma's so fat she has smaller momma's orbiting around her!

May I just chip in and say that my umbrella was pinched from under my seat at the EDT on Saturday night. It was chucking down outside so I wasn't best pleased. The place is obviously a den of murderers and thieves and should be closed down before the crime wave spreads to, say, Black Cherry.

[andycam]

Ha Ha! which is right next to Kebab and Wine for that extra length of crime free safety. lol

Now we find the real victim in all this.

Giggi leaves home all gamped-up, spends a convivial evening boosting the local economy only to leave the EDT gampless and because of the rain lagging down no doubt arrived home looking less than pristine, Christine.

If she decides to go back there with a Penguin style purple knock-out gas emitting brolly and wreaks havoc this Saturday then I for one wouldn't blame her.

Who's with me?

That's it - "Closing Time" yet again - Drinkers don't like closing time and it makes them fight. Keep pubs open, that will sort it.

[DrDom]

Right that's it andy, meet me in the EDT toilets just before closing time to sort this out!...hang on, that sounds a bit dodgy..

[Atila Reincarnate]

Was it an EDF drinks night?
