This Leeds Bar are hosting a Rocky Horror themed Bottomless Brunch on Halloween
I would like, if I may, to take you on a strange journey to the only bottomless brunch any Rocky Horror Picture Show fan show be attending this Halloween.
This Halloween brunch is the perfect spot to spend the spookiest day of the year, but you may find yourself shouting "If only we were amongst friends... or sane persons" every once in a while.
On Sunday 31 October, grab yourself a place at the only Rocky Horror Picture Show brunch you'll want to attend.
Hot patootie, bless my soul. I really love that rock n' roll. Make sure to come in your finest fancy dress and shoes you can actually dance in as this fun-filled afternoon will have you on your feet for quite some time.
Combining the classic Rocky Horror Picture Show with the horror of Halloween: the two sittings at 11am and 6.30pm will have you the time warp again and again, regardless of which time you choose to attend.
Expect singing, dancing and even a Rocky Horror themed quiz to find out who the true fans of the Picture Show are. There will be prizes for both best dressed and top scorers, so come prepared to wow the judges with the answer to the question: whatever happened to Fay Wray?

All this time warping will surely work up an appetite, so tuck into a delicious brunch fit for any one of the cast.
Choose from a traditional Brunch Grill: your classic meaty English breakfast or opt for a gluten free version. Vegetarians and vegans will also be well catered for with a smashed avocado dish topped with tomatoes, chili flakes, coriander and Sriracha sauce.
If you're more sweet than savoury for breakfast, dip into a stack of pancakes layered with bananas and blueberries, with plenty of jam and nutella to pour over.
Prefer brunch to be bottomless? Well, it is Halloween after all. Upgrade to keep the booze and soft drinks flowing for the full experience.
Classics like Aperol Spritz, prosecco and Amstel will be available in the bottomless upgrade, in addition to Ketel V&T, 0% Heineken and selected soft drinks.
It wouldn't be a Halloween bottomless brunch without a Bloody Mary though, so take full advantage of the endless cocktails available and grab yourself a spooky mix to get into the Halloween spirit.
Although, that's a rather tender subject, another slice of brunch anyone?
Britain's 20 biggest cities have been ranked, and Leeds has done pretty well.
Although, you wouldn't be able to tell judging by the overwhelmingly lacklustre description we've been given.
The listing comes from The Telegraph and ranks Britain's 20 biggest cities from worst to best, taking into account visitor appeal and where offers most to tourists.
Leeds comes in at a very respectable number 10, however judging from what they've said about our city you'd think we were much, much lower.
Kicking things off, the description reads: "There’s an untidy quality to Leeds, borne of a patchwork of periods in its built environment and the fact that a lot of regeneration is underway (cranes rise at every corner)."

Yep, not off to a good start but it's only down hill from there as Leeds is then said to have a 'certain shapelessness'.
But perhaps the worst part is yet to come: "There are some ugly, run-down streets very close to the centre, and while the Headrow and other high streets have a fair number of shops, there’s no real boulevard or grand square.
"The most atmospheric spaces are Queens Arcade and perpendicular Cross Arcade, and Thornton’s Arcade; Grand Arcade is also Victorian but looks and feels less uplifting."
By the end it starts to get slightly more positive, emphases on 'slightly': "Leeds’ strongest points might be its small size and its north-central location; it’s easy to walk everywhere inside the city, and a short ride away are Ilkley, Skipton and the Dales."
Our visitor appeal gained a 6.5/10, beating Cardiff, Sheffield, Brighton and Nottingham.
Taking the top spot was Liverpool followed by Edinburgh, Belfast and Glasgow. Read the full ranking here.

They've been teasing a second site for some time now but finally the cat is firmly out of the bag as they've announced they'll be bringing Domo to Leeds.
But where might you ask? Well, none other than the scenic location of the Lockside overlooking the canal.
Slotting right in next to BAKE, they're going to be in very good company indeed.

Announcing the exciting news to Instagram, Domo said: "So most of you guessed it right...it’s been a long time coming but Domo 2.0 is finally cooking.
"Here’s a little sneak peek at our week which we’ve mostly spent admiring the views and getting to know the new neighbours …. If you can guess where it is there’s a glass of bubbly on us next time we see you. To be continued ………"
That's all the information we have so far, but we'll keep you in the loop as and when we find out more.
We can't wait to have you here in Leeds Domo, but for now we'll pop round to Sheffield to get our Domo fix and we highly suggest you do too.
