My memories of the club | Meeting in Cavalier Gardens in Hayes (where Polly and the Benner brothers lived). Tuesday night meetings at the Peggy Bedford on the Bath Road. Trips to The Avon Causeway Hotel in Dorset. The 'many' trips to Beesands, Devon. The 'Bottle of Bulldog' nights at The Plough, Harefield. The 'Good Old Days' show at the Church Hall, Harefield at Christmas 1980. |
Summary of my life to date | Still working in I.T within the Banking sector, which I have done since 1974. I get down to Devon at least once a year still, even camped down there in 2003 and 2004. |
