My Dad, together with his friend Tony Perkins the butcher, ran a non-alcholic 'nightclub' for the under 18's in Ossy called Gobbinlanders. It was on the corner of Oak Street, on the block facing where the old Co-op used to be.

It opened in '72. A small number of trouble makers eventually meant that it wasn't viable, and it sadly closed in '75.
