Me too. Stayed all three days and lived on soup and cob for breakfast, six cans of Worthington E for lunch and for tea/supper mainly stuff we got from our friendly neighbourhood alchemist.

My mate Alan Bentley used to be manager at Wilkinsons Boutique in Hockley (can't remember the street). After a stint in the Windmill we and Neil Wharton would go down to said shop and load up Neil's minivan with shoes and then go to to the Hippo on a selling spree.

Me too. Union member 1966 to 2015. Am now still a union member here in Oz but in the retired section of the AMWU. Protests, Work to rule, Rallies and Strikes. All a blast but always striving for better conditions and wages for members.

Magdala Road and Radford Boulevard were party heaven. Usually found out about these in the back bar of the Black Boy hotel.

I remember him buying a house just a short way up Long Lane. At one point he had a Union Jack hanging out of his upstairs window with Jo Jo Gunne painted across it.
