I remember the name Leo from the Rib, but can't picture him. We only used to go in at the weekends though. The George & Dragon is also in the same photo you mention of the Ribblesdale (it's now the loading bay area for M & S)
I saw an article in the Telegraph the other night about the Queens in Accy being turned into a doctors surgery. Nice job by the look of it. The ex pubs in Blackburn have either been left to rot or turned into private houses. Can't say I ever went in the Queens but it looked a grand building.
If you follow my Youtube link, it should take you to another similar slide show I made. Or just type in Blackburn Easter 1963 (In My Life by The Beatles)
