I think that declaring "open house" on 2353 is actually a clue - not an invitation to chuck another one up Had me bloody confused!

Well yes, the picture is a little out of date!
Been in data comm since we formed the bits individually with a Morse key.

Hydro Grand Hotel, late of Timaru NZ. (Demolished a couple of years ago).
I believe Fins offering is still open.

Tis indeed, Capt P. Stunning place, Rather grim tale re tower. People were dropped in from the top and left there permanently.
Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.

Re: The Smokin' Hot Where On Earth Thread Mk III
A pub we used to frequent years ago. Very well known so should be a short challenge.

Some stories about this pub are probably exaggerated.

Had to look that up Wodders, never heard of it. I know now.
The upper floor of this pub was apparently used as a court room for thieves and it is alleged that they would hang them there so you are definitely along the right lines.
