Guess where I am then add yours.
It is the 1960's I am looking at a roundabout, behind me is the local nightspot, to my right is the odeon cinema, across the roundabout is the "skyscraper", as it was likened to when built. Where am I and what is the name of the nightspot?
I'd be dangerous with a brain!!!!!
