I haven't been to Hyde & Zeke in YEARS. I always have trouble finding the new location, and the last time I looked for it, I searched so thouroughly that I thought maybe it had finally given up the ghost.

I wish they were still on Univesrity Ave, or SOMEWHERE more centrally located.


I promise its not that hard! Here are directions from The Atlantic.

They were £420 about 2 months ago, gutted. Last year they were £500.

Still, what am I gonna spend the money on otherwise? Drugs and women, that's what. I'm doing myself a favour.

That sux...I'll probably be leaving just before you arrive!

When did you text me? In New York? If so I'm pretty sure I didn't get it. I managed to find Irish Brian (Readysteadyjedi) when I was there though. I think I posted on the first board to try and find out your plans but needless to say it didn't work out!
