Gone are my heavy boozing days. Don’t get me wrong, I still indulge in a few too many drinks now and again but rarely do those sessions leave me with a hangover or some weird forgotten wake of carnage where I wake up in my clothes.

That said I am excited about the imminent arrival of 3Speed which Google Maps tells me is located at about 1169 Bloor Street West. That’s on the south side of Bloor west of Dufferin and just west of the high school and east of Brock.

Rumor has it that this is to be run by the fine folks that opened The Communist’s Daughter on Dundas about 10 years ago. I’m sort of guessing at that 10 years ago shit. Peering through the window as I’m want to do, it looks awesome. Now let’s just hope it has a jukebox that will rival the one in the old place.
