Here's a round up of some of our major events back in the very early days of The Bottesford Bar. Be afraid of just how long ago they were...
You can find the photos for all of these under History/Bar Diary 1998-2002.
Bottesford Festival 2000 - 31st July 2000
A massive 3 months of planning led to our first outdoor event- Bottesford Festival 2000. Outdoor sound & light 'stage', live DJing, water fights and even cow pats!
24 years, 4 months and 27 days
New Years Eve 2000 - 31st December 1999
Probably our most organised party ever- an allnighter that took 2 months to prepare. Complete with bar, funky new lighting systems, vast numbers of photos, mini disc recording and not to forget- hot cardboard!
24 years, 11 months and 27 days
Party in a Field - 15th June 1999
To celebrate the end of college - an overnight party in a field - complete with 7am galloping horse!
25 years, 6 months and 12 days
Easter BBQ - 16th April 1999
A BBQ in April? Yep - it used to be rarer in April's back then before global warming appeared so readily! A chilly evening outside complete with plate & sausage burning! Or did that actually happen...
* I'm not 100% sure of the date of this!
25 years, 8 months and 11 days
New Years Eve '99 - 31st December 1998
Our first major party of the now growing group - still not yet known as The Bottesford Bar. Famed for the 'bodies' photo, the 'pubic hair stealing affair'
and much other general debauchery...
25 years, 11 months and 27 days
Nick's 18th Birthday Party - 10th October 1998
The party that kicked it all off - a small group met at a drunken party that included the pile known as 'Beer' as well as topless darts! Not the guests, mind,
but from the now long gone L!VE TV cable channel...
26 years, 2 months and 17 days
