Many of us will have been out and about to enjoy a bit of merriment in the city centre over the festive period.

So in homage to the bars that operate on the city’s mecca of hospitality that is West Street, we have pulled together 11 pictures of you clubbing away in the 90s and noughties.

Who can you recognise having a pint or a glass of wine?
