Who Remembers The Wapentake?


Recommended Posts

I don't think the surroundings are so important I'm sure there are shots of people in their bedrooms or other such places.

I've just checked and yes there are pics taken in other places one of my ex's in a rather fetching black outfit outside her house for example.

At the time I used to curse people who took a camera out with them on the grounds that I wanted no photographic evidence of anything!!

Now (more than 20 years later) I kind of wish there was more photographic evidence!

Andy Atkinson had a load of Taff's old photos at one point Wallbuilder, any idea what happened to them? Also both Linda and Terrance were seen out with cameras - ideas there?

Hi wallbuilder just to let you know there might be one or two photo's of me on site soon if steve puts them on . I don't know how they look but spent 3 hours earlier today trying to attach em to email so for all I know they might be total rubbish. Sadly( or fortunately) they're not from 70's but 1991 and 2005 I'm still recognisable on em tho cheers jackie

Just noticed this thread.

I remember a place in sheff where a leather clad Wath lad used to end up very drunk many weekends.

Don't seem to recall how I got home but I must have most times.

 

What was that mag called ? Seem to have a cloudy thought about skull crusher.

Ye godz I was a mucky beer drinking greasy biker when I was a lad. :)

Hi Jackie, I was in the Wap most nights for years and worked behind the bar for a while 78/79ish. If I was on the 95 when you got on, we would sit together and have a natter. I didn't get in so often from the mid eighties due to marriage and having kids etc. You also know my ex husband and he mentioned the other week that he still sees you around.

 

I live in Barnsley now so don't get to Sheffield for a night out very often, although we do occasionally hire a minibus and a group of us come through for a change of scene. Haven't done that for ages though but now we know where the rock pubs are now, I think a trip might be arranged very soon. I'll look out for you and say hello
