Re: The Vulcan
Hello to all.
Wow this thread really brings back memories.
I spent a lot of time in The Vulcan especially 81 to 84 when I was studying at Blackburn Tech.
Several things stick in my mind about The Vulcan.
Fantastic Juke Box
George and Anne.
The Mod Room
Being there when the news broke that Sid Vicious and Nancy Spongen had died,
Derek - A complete lush, Who always dressed in a suit, tie, and a light blue anorak, He could be found in there most afternoons playing pool.
Upstairs on a Friday and Saturday night
One of the denim clad long haired regulars (Billy?) winning a lot of money, possibly on spot the ball or the like,
6% Holsten Pils - Usually two bottles at once in a pint glass.
Its notorious reputation, which it thrived on.
Long since gone, and fondly remembered are - The Top Hat Club (A.K.A Flying Bottle) The Veteran, The Peel, The Clarence, The Queens, The Courts, The Grapes, The Swan.
Cheers
Wonderwall
