I read this with a smile and this thread is the reason I joined. I was born in LLandudno, Oxford street and remember all the bars pubs and clubs. From early days getting a drink off the end of the pier I worked in the cafe and the old guy in the bar used to swap me a half for a sandwich. other places were the Links hotel at the back door there was a stable for horses. The cross keys madoc street and the summit pub where all young drinkers hung out if you could be bothered walking. The steam packet was one of my faves does anyone remember The captain the old guy who used to throw darts at the board precariously place above your head. The royal oak with suzy behind the bar its that place with the jukebox pushed me into music, everyone smelling of petuna oil. The london was cool, The Dolphin [worked there]. The parade,The speakeasy, The washington was a great place and Lemmy from motorhead played there as did Jimmy Page. Who remembers jumping in the back of a van by Bog island and heading to the Old Hall the only nightclub then staggering home passt the posh houses in craigside. Yep many good and bad memories. well thats enough for now. just dipping my toe.
