Ah, but you're not a famous punk rocker Gypsy! (I hated punk, I was an early 70s man).

And instead of the Golf just having a top square we could have Plaza Espécimen Perfecto which sounds rather grand

I know The Clash were officially labeled "punk" but I think they are more "heavy rock" One of the best bands of all time imo.

Is that "Taboo" disco still in the bottom square? I was in there with my golfing mates years ago, we were the only ones in the place! (Plus the DJ...)

Yes Taboos is still there. Open very late. Surprisingly its not just young-uns who get in there. Mind you average age on the Golf must be well over fifty.
