I worked there in the 90;s and they treat you like crap then too, and I had to wear fishnet tights - a helicopter skirt (2 inches from cockpit) and heels, they even sent em home once as I didn't have enough make up on!!

zepstox Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 We got bored queuing one night and had a tomato ketchup fight by the burger van outside. Dozens were turned away that night for not having the correct attire. As if it was that good anyway.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliandethan Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Did you also have a bingo top on (eyes down look in) It was shall we say quite a revealing top!! In my first week I couldn't understand why all these lads were buying alcopops as they didn't look the type - realised when it was pointed out to me its cause they were on the bottom shelf of the fridge and I was showing my arse off everytime I got them one!! Soon learnt the manoevre of crouching..didn't get as many tips though - though once Peter Stringfellow tipped me £30!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippyzag1 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I remember that they used to give bottles of cheap bubbly away to anyone who said it was their birthday or hen-do. Had a few good nights in there, but Roxys is where all my great memories are.... Town is not what it used to be..... Legends, stone house, fountain bar, gladstones....
