Pretty sure that went when they knocked the old cinema down. |  |

Was it near a cinema? I really don't remember. The last time I was in there would be around 1990. I recently posted a story about my mate introducing me to an old fella that had played for Ipswich (He hadn't) That was in The Dawn Run. |  |

Actually, I'm wrong. It was on the next bit, closer to the Chicken Inn chipshop. Is now a restaurant. Don't think I ever went in there, despite having lived in Chelt since the late '80s. We used to drink round the corner in the Prince of Wales during the '90s, then later the Cotswold. |  |

Lots of things missing this year. No minibus going round in the evenings, scraping drunk people off the street to take to "Eroticats", which I'm sure is as wholesome entertainment as the name suggests. |  |

I loved Cheltenham. Beers on summer afternoons in the park, near Montpellier, was very enjoyable. |  |

Yes. Came to college here and liked the place so much I stayed ever since. |  |

I am nonplussed. Is it two white, northbound cats, viewed from the south, in the snow? |  |

...pop up "Gentleman's Club". Good to see the empty shops getting used one week a year. |  |

They look very nice. The Air Balloon was also a favourite on a Sunday. |  |

In recent years, they've take over the pub where Magic The Gathering players meet on weekday evenings the rest of the year. |  |

That's closing soon, being demolished as part of a major road improvement scheme to deal with the chaotic traffic on that roundabout and up past Birdlip. Had rather gone downhill of late, anyway (in a metaphorical, not literal sense). Talking of Birdlip(ish), the Golden Heart is another favourite place to eat. |  |

I haven't been there since I lived in the area early 90s. Was lovely on a summers evening or Sunday afternoon. |  |

Long gone. Decent enough place during race week. But a pretty scary place to be outside of that. |  |

Wainlode's has gone downhill a bit over the years. The Fleet at Twyning is still lovely though for a riverside pint. [Post edited 16 Mar 2021 15:34]

Unless something else has happened in Cheltenham since I drove through last night, its not a restaurant. It's a Turkish Bar now. 'Angora' I think it's called. |  |

Had always assumed it was a restaurant rather than a bar. Never been in there. |  |
