CoolHandSax Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 In the early eighties, before everyone owned a video player, Tuesday nights were 'Film Nights', where they'd show a movie on the big screen they set up on the stage. It were like going to a D.I.Y. cinema... with beer! Of course there was always an intermission, for the bingo & a slash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swblandy Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 Yes it was the club on Woodseats road, it would seem some of these replies relate to the Dale club. I played billiards and snooker for the social club and fished in the Norton Winter league. What did they call your brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
