White and Swales!

[TheCultOfIanTunnacliffe]

Peter J Swales Records on George Street;

Discount Records on George Street;

Gordons Records on Kingsway.

Many hours (and pounds) spent in each of those.

[Robin Reliant]

This exile hasn't been to Cheshire, never mind Alty, since 1995!   Is there any point in my returning? Will I even be able to find my way to Moss Lane?
When was Sugar Lane renamed Ridgeway Road? etc etc



Actually, I just got across the border to Chester this week, but that doesn't count as its now a suburb of Liverpool.   

[Knutsford Alty]

Getting back to the thread, the Red Robin club (ala Chequers)!  Snooker table was on the left when you walked in, dance floor at the end get in

The days when you would go to a shop and buy your latest favourite single on vinyl rather than just sitting in your bedroom to do it! There was something very satisfying about that first slight crackle when the needle hit the vinyl!

You mean they've all gone?

Spent many an hour in The Park eating greasy food as cooked by my dear old brother. Pat Crerand was a generous host.

Didn't The Park have a brief incarnation as The Jolly Friar?

The Bricklayers, noooo! Even worse someone on a pub site I use has just posted that The Orange Tree is closed and the lease up for sale, can anyone confirm?

[Altyant]

Our Price/Music Zone....many visits after school to get cds.

My Dad took me to The Downs before my first Alty game, while Litten Tree (or Bar Med as it was then) was where I went drinking after games when I was 15/16.

Didnt there used to be a HMV in Alty too?

The Blockbuster DVD store which seemed to have been Alty for as long as I can remember closed late last year

[taxi Phil]

The Stamford Hall (played there once, saw The Animals, Spencer Davis Group, and The Merseybeats among others).......

......and the original Alty Baths where I did some top bombing a la Peter Kay (only thrown out once !)
