Leeds ninjas

[chekov]

hansa's is probably the best curry restaurant i've been to

can imagine leeds is pretty dry if you don't wana be around nobhead students (i'm one myself and i can't stand most people i live around)

i do like it here though

[test_recordings]

There's plenty of places where there's none, but...

I'm not telling you to prevent further gentrification...

are they like doing up tribe records, when i was in leeds start of this year it was pretty shit, one rack and apparently they used to have upstairs and it was wicked

[test_recordings]

I think Scotty's giving it in...

The fish and chip place is worth a visit in Headingley can't remember the name but it's award winning and that

Hi Fi is a decent club with varied music, Smokestack apparantly for hip hop altho I never went.

There's some alright pubs near the uni or if you want to travel in Far Headingley past the precinct.

Just went up for a random weekend with my girlfriend. And mate, Leeds is sick. Disco playing everywhere, and everything costs a pound.

For future ninjas interested, we went to Smokestack (soul/funk/nice vibes), some random anarchist bookshop/cafe playing banging techno, somewhere I think called Wire (?), small smokey and playing disco. Also managed to blag our way into the opening party of some new bar called 212 - really friendly vibes, nice soundsystem and a rotary mixer woi oi.

It is also possible to break onto the roof of the Inland Revenue building and get a cracking view of the sunrise over Leeds, but I didn't tell you that.

Mostly though I'm still amazed at how cheap and friendly everywhere was. £1.50 pints, 2 pasties for a pound....phwooaaaar. Could definitely get used to this. As to whoever mentioned Bristol - I think Leeds has a really similar vibe to Bristol, except less hippies, more students and everything's bigger.

Will definitely be returning!
