Can you remember the original wood cafe which burnt down?
There used to be a talent contest on Friday nights in the new one for budding singers and groups.
I was in one Friday night and a young lad, probably about 12 Y/O was trying his best to do an Elvis impression, three Scotsmen were playing cards near the front and told him “to shut the f up for Gods sake” it was a good introduction to show business for the youngster.
