RAIN, RAIN GO AWAY!


Bring on the sunshine... soon....please?

What a horrendous week it's been. The people of Exmouth have spent their time too-ing and fro-ing from one  shelter to another and sometimes, from one pub to another.
Thanks to all of you who braved the downpour this week, especially those of you wearing mega high-heels and not much else.
Next time it's wet like this spare a thought for our doormen too, who are out there come rain or shine, soggy and cold, with nothing more than the occasional cup of coffee to make things better.... aw bless ;)

Moving swiftly on to this week's little competition in honour of Valentine's Day. Thank you to all who participated by tagging Qube Exmouth in your (or a friend's) mushiest picture. They all had our judges cooing with the romance of it all - even Sarah Bradley's frogs getting jiggy with it - but finally a decision was reached:-

In 3rd Place: Naomi Hall & Tony Evans smooching.
In 2nd Place: Vikki Ingram & Sam Lake floating

Finally, 1st Place, by unanimous decision:

CONGRATULATIONS TO CARLY SHAW AND TOBY FOORD!

Carly Shaw and Toby Foord
Winners of our Valentine's Photo Competition

To collect your prize, please inbox Qube Exmouth on Facebook with your email address, I'll send details from there.

So, it's one week until payday, which surely should mean you're all using this weekend to spend what you've got left?

Don't forget, if it's raining on Saturday night, take advantage of Qube's front door being open between 11pm - 1am. We regret we cannot take coats at this entrance, but you can pay & get stamped as normal. Quicker entry means more drinking and dancing time, plus more chance of staying dry -- it's a win, win situation.

If you haven't got a Q Plus card, why not? Visit this link to apply now  http://www.q-club.co.uk/html/apply_now.html  It's completely free and you'll receive £1 off every night we open. That INCLUDES New Year's Eve. Don't miss out.

Crikey, No likey!!!

There are hearts just about everywhere and more than a few white-knuckled lads dithering around the cuddly toys in town wondering if they can pluck up the courage to buy one - must mean that Valentine's Day is almost here.
OK, so there are the inevitable grumbles that come with it, most  blaming the Card Shops or indeed, the Americans, for creating & then cashing in on a load of nonsense, but there are some romantics out there so we'd better do our bit for the slushy ones... here's a cute little cupid, awwwww.


In typical fashion this Wednesday, Graham Daniel (always a sucker for a novelty) helped to get you in the spirit of it with his very own version of 'Take Me Out'. Now there was a bit of confusion and a couple of technical issues with the fancy lamps, but it all added to a hilarious game of modern 'Blind Date.'


NO LIKEY, NO LIGHTY


Guy one, proclaiming to be a Fire Man, did absolutely nothing for our girls because, even in spite of being greased with baby oil and flexing his muscles for the excited masses on the dance floor, all the lights went off. Fireman Sam could only hang his head and skulk off into the crowd.
Guy number 2 I don't remember much, so I reckon he probably didn't last too long.
But Guy 3 had the desired effect and eventually ended up with a date who he proceeded to get 'familiar' with right away!


STEADY ON!
The couple have won a romantic dinner for 2 at Exmouth's new fab bar, The Grapevine. What they'll think of each other, we don't know, but we'll post the gist of it on the blog next week.




Also on Wednesday we had a special shout out to long serving staff member and Exmouth legend Daniel Burns. Sadly he bottled out of 'Take me Out' but he was still willing to strut his stuff on the dance floor after a few sherbets. Happy Birthday Dan. Hope you had a brilliant night... I know we did...


Happy Birthday Dan!


Sam Zimmerman went  down a storm again Friday night. The dance floor was packed all night - his tunes were obviously encouraging them to work up a sweat....


Another busy Saturday with Resident DJ Graham Daniel. We had them all in this week, from Tuxedos to Life Guards. What a buzz all night and Qube was busy too. Some of you are really taking advantage of our Double-Up on Smirnoff for just a £1 !!! (Offer exclusive to Qube).


And my favourites are the smug ones. The ones who've learnt already that instead of standing in a long queue, for 2 hours between 11pm- 1am the Qube door is open so you can get in that way. No waiting. No Queue. No Fuss.
We regret though that we cannot take coats etc upstairs as the kiosk isn't open at the end of the night for these items to be collected. Even so, it's little hassle to use the cloakroom downstairs.


Don't forget to join in our Valentine's Day fun game - the winner of which will be announced on this blog next week. Tag 'Qube Exmouth' in your cuttest couple photo for your chance to win. It doesn't have to be a picture of you, it can be friends/relatives, but if the tag is unwanted and gets removed, the photo will not be considered. Our favourite picture of all will win the couple in it a special prize!


Happy Valentine's to you all! x

Fantastic February

It's finally February!!! We're well on our way to Spring and fingers crossed, we've seen the back of the snow and the skintness that is January. It's time to warm up, get out of the house and get some serious partying done.

First things first: this week we bid a Happy Birthday to Resident DJ and Cheesy Wednesday Legend Graham Daniel. 120 people got a free shot to celebrate & a lucky group of you received FREE Wednesday night entry just for sharing the same Birthday... Now that's jammy.
It's OK Graham, we won't
tell them how old you are ;)
Friday and Saturday this week hosts another Q Club legend: the Kool Mr Kevin Kane. That can only mean a busy dance floor and a buzzing atmosphere. 

Another bonus this weekend is the re-opening of Qube on Saturday. We know it's been missed throughout January, but now it's back and better than ever. Try our speciality shots & excellent selection of wines. Better still, double up on Smirnoff Red for just £1 (Qube promotion only.)

Is this you?
FACE OF THE Q
Are you a poser? Gather your friends or just flash your toothy whites for the DJ's camera and earn a chance to be 'FACE OF THE Q': our weekly fun competition. Check out our promo screens in the club for the latest winner. Collect your prize from the Kiosk.

Anyone recognise this caped crusader? If so let her know, she's Face of the Q for the week ending 6th February. She needs to hurry to collect her prize.
