Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You That Sasquatch probably doesn’t exist. It’s very unlikely, when you weigh up the evidence. I mean, those North American forests there are pretty big, but then to sustain a population of very large apesque creatures, there’d need to be a lot of them. Over the many years people have been living there you’d think there’d be some kind of concrete evidence, bones at least. Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You That ‘Si’ looks a bit like this. I know you don’t need reminding, everyone knows ‘Si’, right? The entirety of Brighton is very familiar with ‘Si’, must be, because otherwise whomever decided to scrawl ‘Si’ and an arrow on this sign would have to be an ignorant cretin with the manners of a retarded goat, and we’d hate to think that such a tremendous arsehole would drink here. Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You Namibia! Sure, it’s got a lot of problems, a 15% AIDS Positive population, and 55% of the population below the poverty line, but lets be fair, it’s been ages since there was any genocide going on, it’s got loads of beach and loads of happy women who wear odd shaped hats! What could go wrong?! Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You That The Face On Mars Is A Trick Of The Light C’mon, honestly, if there were a super-advanced ancient species that once lived on mars and constructed a twenty mile tall, two hundred mile long face, you’d have thought they’d have the technology to do a better job than this, eh? Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You Of Girls ‘n’ Guns Cheap, yeah, tacky, yeah, but still somehow sublime. Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You That There’s a reason Sex and Violence is popular: It’s a lot more fun than Chastity and Timidity. Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You That In the event of sinking, this toilet has been designed to act as an emergency life shelter. To activate; A: Locate the locking lever under the toilet, and pull forwards firmly with both hands. This will release the inflatable flotation skirts. B: Once fully deployed, pull the lever firmly upwards to disengage the locking clamps and release the emergency shelter. C: Life Jackets are located in several locations marked by a bright orange warning sign. D: Emergency provisions may be located, if anyone happened to bring them along. E: Avoid drowning by inhaling only air. If accidental inhalation of water does occur, good luck, we’ll miss you.

Remain observant. If you see a Pod Person be sure to report it to your nearest Police Officer straight away! Keep an eye out for anyone showing the tell tale signs; Pod People have no sense of humour! If in doubt, try telling them an amusing joke, or see how they react to a witticism! - Pod People have a great fondness for the colour brown. - Pod People find listening to rap music extremely painful, try whistling a track by a rap artist. - Pod People cannot pronounce the word ‘disinclination’, try to slip it into a conversation. - Pod People often wear very ugly shoes. - Pod People never drink cider. BUT ABOVE ALL BE ALERT! Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Share This If you take a photograph of the above image on a Nokia or Samsung mobile phone, and send it via picture messaging to an iPhone, a secret message will appear!

George Bunting DSO MST BSC SSC Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Things You May Have Done Wondered why washing machines are covered in dials with arcane and mystifying symbols rather than a temperature gauge and a timer, which, lets face it, would be far more straightforward and generally would mean men could wash things without destroying half of everything every time you hit the ‘go’ button. Imagined that you are the pilot of your own body, which is in fact a giant mech. Imagined that you are a cybernetic killing machine from the future, and enjoyed knowing that to everyone else you appear to be a perfectly normal human. In either case above visualized the Heads Up Display replete with targeting cross-hairs and meaningless streams of numbers. Issued quasi-military jargon to yourself as you navigate round town. “Piper alpha kilo, accelerate to maximum cruise speed and proceed heading zero-zero-twenty to target zone.” That kinda thing. Convinced yourself that you’ve seen enough kung-fu films that if those two rowdy gits at the bar don’t shut up you’d be able to get rid of them in short order Bruce Lee style. Tripped on something and rather than face the impending laughter from the folks around you decided to turn it into the start of a little dance, as grown men suddenly breaking into dance is perfectly normal and unlikely to gather attention, whereas tripping is downright foolish. Spent some time doing something with your fingers strictly together as two pairs, so that it looks a bit like alien hands, just to see if you really need four of the buggers. Started your car by flipping the imaginary engine start buttons, bringing the reactor to full power, encrypting the radio and having a brief conversation with air traffic control before you turn the key. Popped downstairs just to see if there’s a new irreverent sign up. Thank You The Mgt Director Melvin Hamock 6th Floor, Zone E Main Building Whitehall London, SW1A 2HB United Kingdom Nigel Thornwhistle The Colonnade Bar 10 New Road Brighton BN1 1UF Re: National Security measures undertaken Dear Nigel, Thank you for your letter apprising the department of your activities and suggestions regarding the National Security of the United Kingdom. Let me begin by mentioning that many of your points would be more correctly dealt with by the Security Service. Whilst it is true that at various points in history the United Kingdom has been at war with virtually every nation comprising Europe, currently those you list are all signatories of the North Atlantic Treaty, are likely to remain so for the foreseeable future, and therefore would be more accurately described as allies, rather than, as you so eloquently put it, ‘evil foreign slime filth’. Whilst Her Majesty’s government remain vigilant in all areas we do not see a need, at this time, for you to refuse service to visitors to our shores from any Nation – you should feel assured that their intentions have been verified as benign on point of access, which is to say Passport Control or the Immigration Service. Whilst you should certainly feel free to report any evidence you uncover of a plot to destablise the Nation, we feel obliged to observe that simply speaking in a language other than English is not, in fact, sufficient grounds to elicit the assistance of the Police or Armed Forces, and as such we remain, regrettably, unable to permanently station a tank outside your venue. In answer to your request regarding the construction of machine gun nests at tactical locations within your venue to repel insurgents, we must decline. Operations of firearms, including automatic weapons, are illegal under the Firearms Act (1968) and there exists no possibility of a permit being issued in this case. However, we are able to confirm that the most suitable weapon, were the situation different, would be the L108A1. As regards your plans to construct a self-destruct device in the gent’s water closet, to be used in cases of foreign invasion, we suspect that you may have overlooked the deleterious effects of the long term storage of ammonia based fertilizers in a public house. We should imagine that the fumes would offer considerable incentive for your guests to vacate the property. Further, although we must admit to having never conducted tests, we suspect that used crisp packets may not be a viable container for these chemicals, even if ‘gaffer tape’ were used to seal up the ones that had split. We feel we must also point out that such a construction, were it successful, would most certainly be in violation of the law. Yours sincerely, Melvin Hamock The Colonnade Bar Guide To Newly Introduced Symbols For The National Trust Thank You The Mgt Classic Posters Of Yester Year #23 The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Remind You That THIS IS NOT A FALLOUT SHELTER Seek Cover Elsewhere! Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Would Like To Announce Upcoming Events for “America Is Wonderful” Night Thursday 28th January Dr. David L. Randolph “How the Americans won the First World War for us even though they only turned up at the end.” Thursday 4th February Jerry Mundaker “How the Americans won the Second World War for us even though they only turned up at the end.” Thursday 11th February Prof. Curtis Zaubach “How the Americans won the Vietnam War, in moral and ethical terms, even though they got kicked out in the end.” Thursday 18th February Dr. Betty B Munch “How the Americans won the Falklands War for us even though they supplied Galtieri with Intelligence Support that almost certainly cost us HMS Sheffield, which, in a long term view, only served to help the British by pointing out how badly we’d do if the Americans decide to stab us in the back.” Thursday 25th February Raul Calvados-Spinks “How the Americans won the War on Terror in a real and meaningful fashion although it must be admitted that it isn’t really over yet, and given the rather vague definition of Terrorism it’s probable that it won’t be unless someone decides to define Terrorism in a way that we can decide we have won, even though clearly some might say we haven’t.” Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Under New Guidelines From The Would Like To Inform You Of New Pub Rules 1: The pub will no longer serve terrorists. 2: Any bombs, guns or other weapons must be handed in to the staff, and will be returned only on departure. 3: Anyone found to be voicing an opinion that Barrack Obama, his Administration or Policies, the War on Terror, the Wars on Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, France or Grenada, Guantanamo Bay, Torture, Incarceration Without Trial or Release, the Acquisition of National Interests by Extreme Violence, the monopolization of global culture and trade by American Super-Corporations or the destruction of cultures and ways of life that do not fit within the Just and True culture of Decent American Society might be in anyway a bad thing, will be taken as sufficient grounds to declare that person an Enemy of Righteousness and the responsible person shall be expelled from the venue. 4: Thursday nights will now be “American Is Wonderful” Night Thank You The Mgt The Colonnade Bar Kitten & Vegetable Stir Fry Ingredients 2 Boneless, skinless kitten fillets, cut into strips 1cm wide Vegetable oil Sesame oil 1 garlic clove 2 peeled carrots ½ red pepper ½ yellow pepper ½ green pepper 2 celery stalks 200g bean sprouts 1 tbsp dark soy sauce 3 tbsp oyster sauce Sesame seeds, toasted Egg noodles Method 1.
