| Had our first visit to Libs since the introduction of single guys on a Friday night, which we were very apprehensive about. Must admit that they were not so noticable during our socialising in the evening, which was pleasant. The one downside we felt was the music was far too noisy for the social area. Previously you could sit and chat with the music louder in the dance area, which we thought was very good. The fact we had to shout to speak we felt lost the relaxing chilled out vibe we were previously accustomed to.
On entering the jacuzzi, we were enjoying the night with a sexy couple who were newbies and had a nice vibe going. That was until our fears and concerns were realised. The fact a single guy joined us in the jacuzzi. And granted he didn't speak to us but encroached within our space and just sat there gawping, really killed the moment.
Now we're not blaming the single guy, as obviously he is there for the same reasons as us. And we're not blaming the club as they obviously want to improve business on a Friday night, which certainly appears to have worked. But this is obviously our opinion and the fact that he didn't get the hint quite early into him coming within our space was disappointing and ruined what could have been a great night for us and a new couple.
Again when we were playing, we did feel uncomfortable with a few guys walking around and waiting for opportunities. One moving from one bed in the distance to go closer to a couple that were playing, which clearly put them off and they stopped.
So to conclude: a fantastic club, and if you don't mind single guys, then we would recommend a Friday night. However, if they are not your thing, then Libs is now no different from any other club in the Mids on a Friday, albeit it being nice surroundings and pricier.
