Coronavirus Lockdown Booze

Well as you all well and truly know by now the coronavirus has arrived and lock-down has ensued this has therefore left me with a predicament on what to write on my last blog post, as this lock-down has stopped me from going to bars and clubs the only logical solution to this is to have a bevy in your own gaff however this has also become more difficult as queues to get into supermarkets has now become a task in itself to just get in to them.

So your best bet is to pop into your local corner shop and see what drink they have left on offer and that will have to do you for the foreseeable, now you're only supposed to go out and shops for essentials and well think most of would agree some drink is essential to us all to get through these tough times.

When I made it to my local corner shop the choice was limited but I was able to pick myself up some cans of Strongbow Dark Fruits cider I know I've failed my namesake but in these tough times tough decision have to be made and there was a good deal for the cider at the time able to get 10 cans for £10 that's just an opportunity that you cant pass up on.

Few cans in hand and Football Manager on the laptop making the best of a bad situation have to bring back some normality with football even if it is virtual pixels running around a screen once you've had a few you're just as invested as you would be on any given Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Guess this will be my life for the next few weeks at least until this all hopefully passes over.

This one may be a little shorter than the rest of the blogs as quite frankly there isn't much to talk about.

Solid Rock Cafe

Photo Credit ( Solid Rock ) For many years Glasgow's watering holes have appeared and disappeared just as quickly but one constant that has always remained is the Solid Rock Cafe on Hope Street opened in 1987, the bar is commonly known to all rock heads in the Glasgow area as the place to go if you're looking for some heading banging eardrum popping rock music along with a cool pint. However, it's not just for Glasgow's fans of the rock scene but a hub lunch spot for local office workers and your average train traveller looking for a quick bite to eat at their convenience, despite its dark and hard exterior that could make you think twice about if it's  really worth  the trouble. By weekend Solid Rock is loud, crowded and there is drinks a plenty all night however by day throughout the week there is a slightly quieter (as quiet as you can get in a rock bar) more laid-back atmosphere.    Photo Credit ( West Beers ) For my choice of drink I ...

Firewater

Firewater is a fun indie bar on Sauchiehall   Street promising (and delivering) real music and hard liquor. This bar is a major draw for students, with occasional live music throughout the week and w hile the music policy airs on the side of indie, Firewater punters know how to rock out too. The venue has attracted its fair share of big name acts and many an after party to concerts over the years, t his late bar in Glasgow is heaving seven nights a week. Cheap drinks and brilliant music (indie/old school rock/pop punk/disco), many people use this place as a place to pre drink before going elsewhere but it is open all night. The bar also caters to those who are looking for a wee bite to eat offering food in the evenings before the crowds really start to gather.  Now this is a place more up my street rather than the thumping tunes of the Solid Rock these are actually tunes that I recognise and know. For my trip to Firewater went on a Monday evening so I decided I would...
