Can anyone tell me....
When did Flicks become Eve's?
When did Eve's become Skinandis?
The wife and I were arguing earlier after I cracked a joke about her going to Flicks back in her day.
She told me she went to Eve's the same as I did but wouldn't believe me when I told her even when I went to the under 18s, skins was skins!
Prove me right!

Martin, Martin,sigh! How long have you been together? Obviously she is right, it doesn't actually matter what she says, she is right. Learn that like I did, and you will have a happy life.

I used to do printing work for Eve's and also during the early days of Skinandi's - a quick record check shows Eve's was operating from at least mid 1996 to late 1997 (as these are when my invoices to them were dated), while my first Skinandi's invoice was in late 1998. Hope that helps!

I moved to Thurso in 1991 and I'm sure it wasn't open then, I think it was about 1993 it opened as Skinandi's. My ex-wife being a native of Thurso sometimes referred to it as Flicks, but mostly as Eve's; she started drinking in there (illegally) in 1986, but probably used the local historical name. Not that I needed to but I found the carpet helpful when chatting up eh chicks, it was sooo sticky they couldn't get away from you :-)

Hmmm, looks like my memory is very fuzzy, I started typing my post Bob's appeared. His record seems more accurate, though I really don't recall drinking in it as Eve's yet I did go in it (unwillingly) in the 90's.

Thanks gents!
Ducati, I'm still too daft to live the easy life by admitting defeat!
Bob, you prove that I was infact only 12 when Skinandis opened! (it's just dawned on me that there was a local competition to name the nightclub wasn't there?
Jox, I suggest your sig is incorrect! Perhaps you had one too many in skins/Eve's/flicks back in the day!
Sorry for the messed up editing. I'm on my phone and it doesn't like formatting!!
