Just got back to my hotel room after the very last Slinky. Had an amazing night and really sad that it's no longer financially viable.
I'm probably hanging up my dancing shoes now as nights out are getting further and further away from home and I'm starting to feel the affects for longer and longer each time.

Goodnight Slinky, it's been emotional :sad:

Why's it shutting down?
I'm just waiting for a plane back to Stanstead. Coming from Poland. Fecking awesome stag, a full on burger dinner for 6, LOADS of pints and a bottle of vodka plus some shots then a kebab each to finish. Woke up next day found out we'd spend 500 zlotty, about 120 quid!
Anyone wanting a lads holiday, go. Went out last night and some of the clubs are awesome. Everywhere I turned there was a fitten and they all loved the British. I need to become single and go back. :grin:

I'm still recovering from seeing Armin Van Buuren at the warehouse project on Friday, took me most of last week to recover from Axwell last Friday. Two pretty amazing nights though.

I doubt I would be here typing this if I did mate, people are dropping down dead with that crap :undecided:

Never really went in the main room much but did dj in the back room countless times, was always a great night there.
Surprised they are closing it down really !

The Opera House itself was sold to O2 in 2010 by the owners of Slinky with the intention of wrapping up but Lee Haslam wanted to keep it going so he stepped in. O2 were charging something like £4k a time to use the venue and were also taking the bar profits while Slinky were using the venue so they were running at a loss.
It won't be the last big name club to shut unfortunately :sad:

I do miss home, raised in Poole and this, the Manor was our 2nd home... In fact my original nights were Obsession at tower park which then became the opera house ;)
Happy days, RIP Slinky!
Cheers,
