I once fell foul of the Alex bar strippers, went home after a Salford game a few years since smelling of baby oil, it seemed funny at the time but was hard to explain away.

I remember the Criterian. We lived up the next snicket "Bakers Yard". All those slums got levelled early 60's and we got moved to the posh houses up Lupset.
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me.

Does anyone remember the bridge Inn down Kirgate It's now got Halford on the land. It was just before the bridge and the landlord was Donald whitiker It was my first ever pint on a Saturday morning I was still at school the 4th year and it was full of kids from school. Donald knew the pub was to be demolished and didn't care , he must have been about 65 then. The juke box was brilliant . Started later to venture in on a Thursday after school but had to take our ties off.
