Thanks Uncle Mick, Bloody Reidys......... D 'N' T was a fine establishment in which I served my musical apprenticeship for at least ten or more years as a Saturday lad, part time worker, christmas temp and assistant manager. Sorely missed by a hardy few.

Re: Mary's Music

i did all those crawls in the 60's and went out with one of the Dansaks..... Hope & Anchor, Broadway, Derby, Blockade, Black Horse (GREAT JUKEBOX - Otis Redding, Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. pub just off Abbey St up the top, nbear Oak ZSt in one of the cross streets........ one day perhaps I'll do a map of the pubs.. many long gone!
Also did "crawls"Iin Clayton .. Greyhound, Load of Mischief etc.... and Ossy.... starting at Church Commercial, now a sad site (sight?!).. I wish people did not use pseudonyms, makes it hard to spot those past associates.. I am Jenny Creasey from Whalley Rd accy, (although Im now married). does anyone remember the Dansaks, and the Warriors? Whatever happened to all the guys in those groups. I've been living abroad and then in West Sussex, but still come back to Accy every 3 months re old rellys... My sister used to post on this web as Susie 123, but sadly died on New Years Eve...... my email for any old Accringtonians who recall me is [email protected]. Happy days those round the pubs of Accy, oh so innocent!

Seeing as this thread was started by steel jack does anybody know if he is still around?
I will be seeing a mate tomorrow who worked along side me and his father Fred in the mid 60,s.
We worked at Batty Holt continental coach tours.

Re: Mary's Music

If I remember rightly, Mary was Joe Mortimer's missus, he of Morts ballroom. By heck I had some fun there, Sunday afternoon dances; steering the old girls around the floor in exchange for dancing lessons.
Shades of Joyce Grenfill; "Stately as a Galleon" more whalebone than to scaffold a Town Hall, dad wasn't too impressed!!.
