I used to go late 70s early eighties, we used to wear legwarmers as knee protectors and hire those hard blue plastic boots. The discos were great.

It was always a bit scary when I speed skater grabbed you from behind and took you round the ring a couple of times (ooer missus!)

If its the same place which I think it is we used to go there in the sixties about the time it opened .I seem to remember when it opened seeing James Bonds car there Astin Martin can,t think of the movie but it had all the gadgets there (all not working ).We went there after the army cadets in uniform from Edmund Rd drill hall what great days.

remember some of them names but the DJ was Glenda What about some of these names, Vic, Dave Cully, Dj's Mick, Neil, and Craig Steve Scott, Skate hire Staff - Sue, Mick, Tony, Mark, Tracy, Debbie, Tracy [big hair], Liz. Angela and others and the manager Mr Sedgley of course. Remember the Ice Hockey Team From Sheffield Lancers to Sheffield Knights and finally Sheffield Sabres went to many of them matches home & away. The Good old Days met other half there too and we are still together now 24 years later.
