  1. The Scala was indeed on Market Street. The news Theatre was further up at the top end of Parliament Street somewhere near where Larry Lloyd had his pub. Opposite what is now Number 10
  2. Wow. Cupe & the Pownalls. The names bring back memories
  3. I certainly did. Sundays & thursday nights
  4. Kinda place when you got burgled you ended up buying your own stuff back
  5. Never been to Ibiza in me life. I tended to stick to the rockin' weekenders in England
  6. Any of you folks in here go to 'The Cocked Hat' rock 'n' roll in the 70's & 80's.? 'Cos Hodgo(Clive) is holding a Cocked Hat reunion on 27th march 2009 at 'The New Venture Club(formerly Plessey Club).Technology Drive. Station Road. Beeston. 100 yards past Beeston station. He'll look forward to seeing many old faces. Baz
  7. Yep. I've known Hodgo for about 35 years now. In fact I was on the phone to him only last week. He told me he's doing a Cocked Hat reunion at New Venture Club(formerly Plessey Club) at Beeston on 27th march 2009. Funny enough my two lads are respectively, manager and assistant manager there.

  8. Yep. I knew the twins, in fact I was looking at friends reunited the other day and they both on there. Baz
  9. It might surprise you to know I ain't the biggest Elvis fan. I love rock 'n' roll in general and now I'm finding more artists and recordings we ever heard of in the 50's. Thx to downloading. Baz
  10. Nope. That was a pal of mine. Rockin' Ray Fletcher
  11. Well, my name's Barry. I'm 66 years old. I was born in Carlton/Mapperley. I went to Cavo school. Left in '57. Went to work in Netherfield by which time I was well into rock 'n' roll and just about starting drinkin' in Trumans, opposite the lions in the square. Found the QE in '58 and the rest is history. LOL. I went past Bottle Lane the other day and damn me, what do I find? A bloody Tesco express where the Ariba used to be. They gettin' everywhere ain't they? No decent pubs in town nowadays so I don't bother goin' much.
  12. Thx for letting me in here. I did'nt know it existed. Reckon I'll just browse around awhile. Baz
