Hi Footiefreak, Happy Easter to you and all, shame about the Rads now, your picture brought back great memories for me,I had a part time job there in 69-70 as a lad, filling the shelves up behind the bar,also one Xmas in the concert room when I was 15, I had my first real drinks session, I think I only had 3 or 4 pints of bitter, but I remember having a hangover for all of the following day.

Hi Enfield! Nice one! Glad the photo brought back memories! Went down there on Wednesday last week, when the picture was taken. I had seen it from a distance from the supertram on many occasions, but being that close to it the other day was a great feeling. The very last time I went in there was just before it closed for good in the late eighties/early nineties. Think my dad was actually in there the day it closed it's doors for good if I remember correctly. Had some great times in there over the years, especially like detrius has mentioned, Easter and Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enfield Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Hi detrius,thanks for the pm, great pictures, brought back memories of the sixties when I used to use the library, and like steve1953 I remember Mr Mettam at Attercliffe Baths who taught me to swim. The highlight for me though was the small warm bath where we used to have a dip before going in the pool, it was luxury compared to the old tin bath in front of the coal fire at home. Also is the pub in one of the other pictures The Travellers? I sometimes went in there in the mid seventies when Peter Swan was the landlord.
