    A trip down memory lane for those of us who spent our Saturday's in the late 70's hanging out down down Spring Bank...

    I'm not actually in that shot, it's some of my old mates, one of whom just posted it on Facebook.

    There are some shocking hair cuts - I guess you wouldn't want to own up if you were in the pic <whistle>

    Bought my Buzzcocks "Orgasm Addict" t-shirt in there - thought I was the height of rebellion!

    I vaguely remember that kid hanging around, but I don't actually know who he is.

    I used to drink with Rat, Snaz, Dave Hardcore from Slander (looks a bit like him with the mohican actually) and that lot on Friday and Saturday night in the 90s. Are we talking the young kid in the Exploited t-shirt ? It does look like a much younger version of him to be fair.

    Thought he was banned from City though, unless that ban ran out. It was like 10 years since I last had a drink with him. Nice kid.

    Rat and Tim behind him were always at City during that time when we were **** and only 4K turned up. Always had a few mohicans like Dill in our crowd.

    I've checked and it is rat.

    Not sure if he's still going to City, it seems he managed to get himself a banning order at some point.

    I used to go to City with Dill as a youngster, always started off at Paragon so he could collect stuff out of out that locker he permanently had in there.

    Was the photo taken near Hessle Road Temple Church? I think I can see a push bike in the reflection on the window!

    Indeed, I suspect this photo will have been '81.

    I remember Rat when we used to drink (all underage) in the New York on opposite BMW. He used to hang around with punks from Boothferry estate (Si Bryant being one). He also used to go out with my mates sister, and yer he was a good lad. He certainly put some timber on since that photo.

    They certainly would have been exploited buying stuff from the old hippies in Transvaal.

    I went to school with the bloke who started Transvaal.
    I should imagine punks were ripe for picking.
