Poptarts

Yesterday I went to visit some of my friends up in Sheffield for the end of uni celebrations.

Poptarts is in my opinion, one of the best student nights out. The club night is known for it's 90s cheesey pop (think s club 7 and the spice girls), although they play a bit of everything - from The Prodigy to The Human League. Adding in the fact that it was the last one of the year, it was a BIG night.



I'm not really a fan of 'cool' clubs, call me old fashioned but I like a good singalong to some nostalgic tunes. I can handle the odd dubsteb track, but could not hack a whole night of it! Student nights are known for their, erm lack of dignity, but I really think nowhere parties as hard as the students of Sheffield!





When the music stopped (finishing up appropriately with Take That - Never Forget), we were in no hurry to head home. Where do you go in sheffield when everywhere has closed?

BALTI KING.

''The most popular restaurant in Sheffield''


I'm not sure where they got that evidence from, but Balti King is one of my favourite places in the steel city. An indian restaurant open all through the night which serves over 50 different types of curries for less than a tenner? WHAT A GREAT IDEA! Stay classy, Sheffield.

We planned to visit the Peak District the following day, but due to the hangovers some of my friends were experiencing, we sacked that off and went for a late lunch in the pub. By the time I got home at 7, I was rather happy to see waiting for me on the table.
