Re: GSM closing?
I can reassure you the condition of alcoholic KoWs expats in SR is way way beyond troppo , the condition they are suffering from is simply 100% pure fucking insanity.willyhilly wrote: ↑Mon Aug 07, 2017 5:46 pm In the NT it's always been called going troppo. A hundred years ago boats would call in to Darwin and everyone was wearing pyjamas. Just like the Chinese there did, and still do in Asia. The Europeans had gone troppo and why not?
I hope there is a brass plaque in memory of the GSM, it's had it's moments. Where would Pontoon go to?
Maybe to a flash hotel and be like the nightclubs in Bangkok hotels. Some of them were really good.
Which are the good ones now, Jamie?

Re: GSM closing?
Yeah, it would seem redevelopment rather than closure and the present occupants may keep thier leases until they run out, and presumably no longer, so yes, GSM will eventually disapear. If they do manage to attract high end retailers ( hhmm, not so sure about that) then you can probably drink 3 dollar coffees from the new tous les jour while looking out at Plan B bar and Howies! Nice!

The Lakeside was good in about 2000-2003
It went rapidly downhill after that.

Re: GSM closing?
you can't have a proper aussie pub in a shitty little hole in the wall. it must be spacious with a great big bar.
not many properties fill that bill.
but gsm could have an annexe easily.
as the old walkabou descended from a kind of normal pub into skank central- the security progressively weeded out the obvious thieves and meth heads- even at it's worst, it was better than gsm
