Re: old haunts
The Commercial used to be very smart - it was also residential. I've got a photograph aged about 10 bedizened in a very fluffy bridesmaid's dress, on the doorstep of the Commercial, and went to many a do there. Didn't drink much in town, really, there was a pub we used to go to near the Infirmary when I was nursing, but we couldn't afford to drink that often. Went more to pubs around Whalley and the Ribble Valley - and there was a very good club in Whalley in the 60s called the Ace of Spades. We thought it was the height of sophistication!

Re: old haunts
My first haunts were The Derby on Saturday and Monday before going up the "Con" Accy Stanely Supporters Club on Sunday night, there was a teriffic Jazz Clud there in the 60s. but I used to hang out in the Bay Horse in Ossy during the week. Then when I was 18 I moved to the Stop And Rest and the Heys Inn
