WHERE DID SUMMER GO? 30 June 08
That’s the third Sunday since the west end festival it’s
bloody rained down on us, what happened to summer?
I lent my car to Pavla at the weekend to transport her
family and our dog to France, then on to Czech with her dad and she turned
around and came straight back to Glasgow. She managed to do Glasgow – Dover and
back including the 2 ferry crossings to France in one go and only 3 hours sleep
so if you see her in the club she has bags under her eyes like the dug’s bawz.
It's was a really busy weekend again and without any real
drama, just the usual stuff going on, no real hassles and that’s just the way
we all like it here.
I haven’t said anything about Rossano’s restaurant for a while,
and I have been in. They are doing good and starting to get a regular crowd at
the weekends so they don’t need me to plug them anymore!! (Hong Kong fuey)
The staff are all getting new uniforms this week and a big
thank you should go out to Brian the owner of Slanj (the kilt shop in town) he
has made the new uniforms for our girls and logo-ed up the stuff for the boys,
they are looking well smart!
That’s all for this week folks
Bye Bye
ANOTHER BLOODY BLOG 23 June 08
 Stringfellow; Always picks up
Do you ever get that Monday blues feeling?
Well, I’ve got the blues, it’s not that we had a quiet
weekend or anything, the club was really busy at the weekend, I was in Friday
and Saturday night and everything ran smoothly, apart from the terrace lights
going out for some unknown reason all was ok.
Its holiday season and everyone seems to be going soon,
apart from me. I tried to sort out a wee vacation with someone last week but
that’s gone a bit pairshaped so I may have to go away alone like a real Sad Sammy
ha-ha.
So it’s a “table for one sir” for me, it’s funny cos all the
guys say to you, you have the best job in the world talking to women all night
in a club, but in reality the chances of leaving with a women from the club are
slim, as all the women you speak to say you must love it in here talking and
sha~#ng all the women, and I won’t end up just another one of them. I’m sure Peter
Stringfellow never had these problems ……………. That reminds me I need a haircut!!
P.s. Bye to Bonnie who is off to Czech land on Friday x
OH MAH HEED!! 16 June 08
What can I say? Well speaking is the only thing that does
not hurt to do at the moment , our second west end festival is over , thank god
we made it out the other end alive ……
From 2 onwards we just got busier and busier until we
reached saturation point around 6 ish.
Auntie Val was flat out on the barby, all the staff worked
there little t shirts off, making mojitos buy the s#*tload.
If you were here all afternoon, thank you! , it’s you guys
at the end of the day we do all this for ,ok we have to make some money along
the way but as long as we all have fun doing it , it makes the hard work
worthwhile …..
Please excuse any spelling misteaks my pet Labrador bonnie
it typing this for me, I didn’t know it was possible to get pain like this just
from blinking!
That’s all folks
I’m off for a wee lie down
P s Greer, hope you don’t feel as bad as me, but I think
there is a chance you might feel worse!!
NEXT UP: FESTIVAL TIME!! 09 June 08
Well another weekend is over and what a weekend it was
The weather was kind to us once again which really made a
big difference to lazy Sunday on the terrace, we had a great day, there was a
good crowd of people and the mojitos were going down a storm. And no matter
what any of you music experts say, you can’t beat the gypsy kings on a sunny afternoon!!!!
I just found out I have a certifiable friend in the name of Gemma.
Every Sunday Gemma puts on her princess tiara and her special gold pants with
sequins and pops out to the local supermarket to buy a bottle of pink fizz
(with tiara) takes it home and drinks the lot herself and watches crap TV then
goes to bed , her special day is called pink fizz day and it could catch on. If
I manage to get any pics I will stick them up .Gemma your mental (but lovely
with it)
This Sunday is the west end festival parade and if the
weather is good to us it’s going to be a big one. We have the DJ’s on the roof,
Vals is all stocked up with burgers, blackened chicken and steak for the barbeque.
We are all stocked up for mojitos on special 2 for 1 as usual.
That’s all folks
Have a good festival!!!!!
BLOODY RAIN!! 02 June 08
The rain put a wee bit of a downer on our 2nd Sunday
barbeque. But it’s not dampened our spirits, next Sunday is looking good
weather wise and the one after that is the big one, its West End festival time
so get down early for that one, it’s going to be awesome.
I was chatting with some of the regulars on Saturday night
and Auntie Val’s new BBQ shack seems to be mighty popular with the regulars and
the staff alike.
Aly had another busy night on Thursday and it looks like DJ
Naeem has a following of loyal supporters, come down on a Thursday the music is
refreshing and if you get here early enough Aly has free bubbly for the first
100 customers.
I’m moving house this week back to the west end so it’s the
end of the odd couple at Milngavie. I’m just a bit worried Jimmy Lang will go
back to his old ways of carry outs and sleeping late in the mornings, James
thanks a million for the warm welcome, it’s now ok for you to hump
all over the house again as there is no chance of me walking in and disturbing you,
cheers buddy, I owe you big time!!
That’s all folks
See ya
LAZY SUNDAYS 26 May 08
Well a lot of you missed the first barbeque on the terrace
on Sunday but likewise a lot of you made it in ………… the Coors team headed up by
Barry the boss and 2nd lieutenant Craig were there to drink “bon
voyage” to Shona who is off to pastures new, from the Boho team Shona enjoy
your new job and thanks for all the support you gave Boho.
Bump had its first night on Thursday and Aly the bump
promoter was happy with the crowd and the numbers through the door, DJ Naeem
is his usual slick self and the night looks like it could be a huge success ,
see you this Thursday if you come down, there is still free bubbly for the
first 100 customers.
This Saturday for some reason has become very popular for
pre booked large parties of women so if you are a young single guy get down
early the place will be full of women!
The photo gallery this week is compliments of Jimmy Lang who
did a sterling job with his new camera sorry the frame is not in any of the
pics but it will be back next week...
Don’t forget this Sunday auntie Vals barbeque on the terrace from 2pm with chill out tunes and 2 for 1 mojitos.
That’s all folks
See ya
BANK HOLIDAY MADNESS 19 May 08
Yes folks it’s another bank holiday weekend and it’s all
happening here at Boho HQ.
Vals polishing her barbeque getting ready for our Lazy Sunday
afternoons, come down early it’s a wee sun trap, we are doing 2 for 1 mojito's- Starts at 2pm!!
etc
Aly is getting excited and nervous all at the same time ,
hoping that his new Thursday night called bump will go down well , so if you’re
a friend of Aly or if you like DJ Naeem come on down its sure to be a good
night there are drink promos and free champagne for the first 100 through the
door .
Big Gene is offskie from the front door he has other business
commitments and feels the late nights are getting the better of him (tell me
about it I haven’t had a weekend of for 8 months) so he is off to pastures new,
all the best big guy and you are always welcome for a wee sherry at the Boho bar!!!
So we now have a new guy on the door called Chris, not as
big as Gene and probably a wee bit better on the eye for the girlies, you can let
me know girls?
That’s all folks see ya next week
BYE BYE DOEBALL 11 May 08
I was hoping some of you would get back to me and say you
wanted to do the doe ball rally again but apart from a few folk that have
approached me in the club no one has said anything, so it’s with regret I don’t
think the doe ball will see another year, if you want to go for it again I need
firm commitment from about 15 teams, last year was great fun ask anyone that
was on it!! …..
For anyone who does not know about it, well it’s just a big
treasure hunt in cars starting at Boho and finishing at Boho it takes the whole
day and there are prizes, with lunch and breakfast thrown in too!
Getting back to things happening now, Sunday the 25th
is the official opening of our new terrace complete with auntie Val's BBQ, the
terrace and bar will be open from 2pm and we will be doing 2 for 1 mojitos,
kebabs and chill out tunes from dj s dale on the roof , come down it’s a
wee sun trap out there and there is loads of room , no fighting for a table ;
there is room for everyone and everyone is welcome (nearly everyone , I could
name a few that are not , but i,m not allowed )
Please e mail me about anything good or bad to do with the
club, or personally just good things if your fit and single and I promise I
will get back to you, and just in case you wondered I have put just a few
pounds on since that picture of me was taken, too much of auntie Val's apple
pie …………
Take care

BYE BYE AMERICAN PIE 05 May 08
And in the streets; the children screamed,  American Pie: Not always tasty.
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed,
But not a word was spoken;
The church bells all were broken.
In case you ever wondered what the levee don MacLean was
driving his chevy too, it’s a type of dam that runs along the banks of a river
or canal.
Classic song which was murdered by Brendan at the Boho night
out at the karaoke bar!!
Well it’s been an eventful week in my life but imam not
going to go into it as I would like to keep some things personal; all I’m saying
is watch this space.
The bank holiday weekend is just over and we are getting
ready for the next one at the end of May, Sunday the 25th will see
the official opening of Vals outdoor bar-b-que area and early opening too, so
if it’s a sunny day head on down to the Boho terrace and relax to chill out
tunes for our Sleazy Sunday afternoons……….. Tell you what it beats fighting for
a table in some of the other west end joints!
That’s all this week folks just a wee get well soon to Jen
from everyone here, we hope to see you back soon xx
See Ya
BYE BYE 5 IRON! 28 April 08
 Scooters: Not gay at all!
Yes I know it’s hard to lose a golf club when you only use
one at a time! If anyone finds a 5 iron at Hilton Park, keep it I was playing
crap with it anyway!!
Friday night ………… we had a fashion show with help from Erin Gavin,
curves and lace ,Slanj and Browns, and also a big thanks to Mr. James Lang
aka 'MIRAGE' who stepped up to compare (a difficult job ) with no formal
training at all .
This weekend is a bank holiday weekend and Sunday will be
the usual busy night so get down early on Sunday.
I was back at Rossano's restaurant last night (stew again) I
need to try something else but the Italian stew is just sooo good. There was a
lovely couple sitting next to me and we got talking, they distribute their own
coffee blend which is called Circi and let me tell you from an espresso lover,
it’s the dogs!! ……. Kept me awake all night so its best tried it before midnight,
Andrea and Julie verdinelli see you soon and don’t forget the scooter racing
sounds like fun.
BYE BYE BABY! 21 April 08
 Tartan-tastic!
Ah, the Bay City Rollers I remember them fondly, myself and
mark Wilson got some tartan rugs and cut them and stitched them into scarf’s
and sold them outside the old Apollo theatre in Glasgow. We managed to sell a
couple of hundred then got chased off by the cops for not having a street
traders licence!
This Friday we are having a fashion show with topless kilted
men for the girls and nearly topless knicker clad girls for the boys (yeehaw). Come
down early it should be a good night and we have all sorts of promotions going
on ……..
It’s really starting to feel like summer now and not one of
you have come back to me with any summer things you want laid on which means
one of two things 1 you don, t read this stuff and I am babbling on for nothing
or 2 you don, t have any suggestions for us cause Boho is perfect the way it
is, please put your thoughts down on e mail I will answer them all.

BYE BYE BLACKBIRD! 14 April 08
An old Lisa Minnelli song or was it Barbara Streisand i'm
not sure, it was one of those old birds anyway.
Just the other night I was in Rossano's new restaurant at
Anniesland (this plug gets me a free starter) and his lovely wife Amanda was
telling me Barbara Streisand tickets for her concert in London are 600 quid !!
Jesus I think she need 2 paramedics and oxygen after one rendition of the way
we were!
Anyway , I am babbling on about god knows what .
We are having a fashion show at the club on the 25th
April with kilts and tartan stuff from Brian Halley @ Slanj and sexy stuff from
bla bla bla come in early folks we have all sorts of stuff going on and I
really do think it will be a good night .
Erin Gavin is supplying the models and my job now is to log
onto her site and pick the models for the evening (dirty job but someone has to
do it) I will try and troll through site and not miss a thing, ha ha.
Oh and I nearly forgot , look out for auntie Val’s new
bar b queue on the deck
See ya!
BYE BYE DARK MORNINGS 07 April 08
 Cheeky
I know the snow is not really any indication that British
summertime is here, but it is, so we can all pack away our tights for another
few months at least (Pavel that was for you we know you wear tights under your
trousers and now so does everyone else)
Summer eh! What does it conjure up in your head? The first
thing I think of is the fact that women wear less clothing and that can only be
good right? Well if you’re a geezer at least. I remember 2 summers ago riding
round George Square on my bike , dark visor down so I can get a good look at
the women and this one stunner catches my eye , sitting on those wee low walls
with a short skirt on so I make another circuit as quick as I can before she
finishes her Greggs low cal chicken mexicana wrap , crawl along as slow as you
can go on a motorbike without falling over or putting your feet down (uncool)
getting a real good swatch at this beauty and next thing bang, crash straight
into the back of a bus , the girls reading this will be saying poetic justice !
The guys will understand, I hope …………..
People people people keep your eyes out for the changes that
are going on outside on the deck. We are putting auntie Val on the deck with a
bar-b-que for the summer nights and we will be doing the early openings on a Sunday
for the now named ‘Sleazy Sunday’ afternoons, enjoy a lazy afternoon with a
mojito and one of auntie Vals roast beef baguettes and some chill out music
served up from our DJ on the roof. Any suggestions for up and coming events
please e mail.
BYE BYE CREDIT CRUNCH 01 April 08
So the tell me the credit crunch is over and everyone can
get back to normal spending, yeah right , can someone please tell my bank
manager so I can nip down to cruise and check out their new summer collections
………..
The other day one of the regulars asked me “what new stuff
is coming up for summertime “and my reply was what would you like? I know we
are a nightclub but we still come out at daytime we are not vampires, so tell
me what you would like to do and we will organise it, all suggestions are
considered. Easter Sunday was a busy one and a lot of new faces as well
as the normal regulars were in having a goodtime hopefully , so to all those
new faces welcome and we hope to see you again very soon .
You might notice while you are queuing up outside that we
have (at great expense to ourselves) cleaned up all the chewing gum outside on
the pavement, so please when you are patiently waiting to come in please either
swallow or dispose of your gum properly ………. Thanks
ON A VERY SERIOUS NOTE ----- WHEN YOU ARE LEAVING THE CLUB
IN THE EARLY HOURS CAN YOU PLEASE PLEASE KEEP THE NOISE DOWN WE DO HAVE
NIEGHBOURS AND WE DO LIKE TO RESPECT THERE RIGHT TO A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP …………
BYE BYE BUNNIES 24 March 08
Easter is over all the rabbits are back in there holes
(saucy)
So now you have stuffed your faces full of cheap low grade
coco tasting Easter eggs it’s time to join the gym, after all you can’t look
like an extra from orca the killer whale when you hit the beach this year eh!! I know every year it’s the same we promise ourselves we will
try harder and get fit and toned like that geezer from east enders who is some
big Hollywood heart throb gladiator now!
But it’s hard, too bloody hard so just accept the majority
of us are on the slightly chubby side! Girls admit it you don’t want to be
going out with a brad pit lookalike it might be fun gazing at him in your bed ,
but take him outside and you will need a big stick to keep all the other
bitches away ! If you want to make an effort without compromising your nightlife,
just start drinking gin and slim line that’s my summer tip!
Take care and keep logging on to the new web site its
changing daily and the weekend photos are always up-loaded on the Monday
!!!!!!!!!
BYE BYE ST PAT'S 17 March 08
So St Patrick’s
Day is over all the gingers are hibernating till next year when they can drink Guinness
and socialise with the normal people once again.
Now
it’s bloody Easter!! Chocolate eggs fluffy bunnies and all the usual Easter
stuff that goes with it. And
what are we doing for Easter? Nothing!! just kidding we have an Easter
eggstravaganza going down on Sunday with cream egg vodka shots etc robin b is
on the decks , I don’t think they play decks anymore he will prob be on the
laptop!!
So
the nights are getting lighter again, summer (well) will be here and gone
quicker than Aunty Val’s mozzarella sticks so make the most of it!!
