One is the loneliest number

Feeling a bit crappy to be honest...

Away from Reet for more than one night for the first time in 5 years ... Thats weird.

I'm in Leeds. I dont think I know anyone in Leeds. Sheffield, Halifax, Newcastle and Hull yes - Leeds, No.

Went for a wander. Leeds City Center on a Monday evening makes Aylesbury look busy.

Borders was open so just brought Vampire: The Requiem core rules - which is now requires the world of darkenss rules it seems.

I'm out of touch. i want to run a new Vampire Game - might just go back to Mask 2nd Edition as thats what I know best.

Did find a pub - was quiet - but was pulled in by the music on the jukebox - Dylan, Velvet Underground, the Doors and the Stones.

I'm fucking miserable ... sorry but there it is ...

Boo, I'm sorry. I think being in Leeds can do that to you. Hope you're not there for much longer...

aren't there any tourist attractions to see?

The Royal Armouries is the biggest tourist attraction round here- and its free.

Only been to Leeds a couple of times, and since the last visit was several years ago, I'm not sure I can offer many useful selections. I can recall a couple of pubs I liked, the Duck & Drake and the Angel Inn. A quick google places those on 43 Kirkgate, LS2 7DR and Angel Inn Yard, LS1 6LN respectively. I do know of, though I've never been to, FAB Cafe Leeds (46 Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, LS2 8PL). I've been to the Manchester one, and I assume it is similar, a bar filled with SF and horror ephemera and kitch. The Manchester one was quite lively, hopefully the Leeds one is similar.
