As long as we don't feel unsafe we be fine. Usually have my wits about me, but might be a different story in Ibiza ?I'm sure we had the same debate last year. The area is a dump and has been for a while. Bars with tin furniture charging €10 a drink
I never felt unsafe or anything though
Ok well at least I can be on my guard now, glad I know and can warn my sister as well. Thanks Clara.I think a lot of it was because virtually everything was shut and it probably looked a bit dodgy us walking down a deserted street.
I've stayed around there before (admittedly in 2002) and it was fine. It was more a comment on how the bar hustlers treat two women differently compared with a man & a woman together.
No you can't
Well, Amnesia :Could you elaborate on which 6 nights you are talking about? I can think of 1 maybe 2 at a push? Amnesia has arguably the most successful night on the island (Elrow), one of the longest running (Cocoon) and one of the most popular amongst the younger, mainly British crowd (Abode).
I was just joking and teasing around...Erm... "Cocoon, sorry I'm too young" (40)?...
Sorry Thomas but this statement is stupid. And it's a non Cocoon lover who says that.
Cocoon celebrates 20 years,the crowd is maybe the most mixed of the island in thems of ages, and some of the top techno djs of the moment are playing for this night.
I think you're not too young, but you don't have enough background in electronic music(like a lot of north-americans) to say that.
f***, I can't believe I take the defense of Cocoon ?
But the truth is, Hï is not that bad...I was just joking and teasing around...

The area has always been massive for dealers and still is. However, the bars used to be very well populated and played some decent music and now they aren’t. As a result it felt very run down and unsafe last August and this June. It’s degeneration has been pretty rapid. Sankeys as a building looks like it’s falling to bits. The area needs a good tidy up and some regeneration. Hopefully Octan will help it achieve this.It was pretty grim when I walked down there in late May.
Also quite an eye-opener walking down with another woman, rather than with my husband. Depressing the amount of hassle (including physical) from guys trying to get us into bars or to 'buy things'.
aaaaaaaand here we have the classic internet manoeuvre formally known as the back peddle ??I was just joking and teasing around...
Lots of pushy prostitutes in that area too that hound you like crazy. At least the price is right with them lol.
Anyone going to Octan tonight for opening? I would be interested to here a review please?
the whole spotlight nightlife team is going yeah. reviews tomorrow.
So far, only one night scheduled a week in September. Do you think they will do more?
read the interview we did with them...
