Trips to bradford ice skating. Didnt even bother on the ice i was **** at it. My mate slashed a lasses wrist when he skated over her after she fell.

The best bit was the bus trip back...

We used to do trips to Sheffield ice skating, getting pissed on the bus was the main reason for going, barely anyone actually skated.

Computer Shop , the rounded window shop near corner of Carr Lane / Ferensway.

We went to Sheffield skating once with some Newland High School lasses in about 1976. One bird was georgeous and I tried every trick in the book but failed. Went to a house earlier this year to do a job and she opened the front door. Still lovely even 40 years later.

I'm not surprised - Ice skating is deadly!

What about all the old cinemas - I remember Carlton Cecil Criterion ABC - seem to remember there was one in East Hull near Longhill - Priory closed before I remember

The cinema near Longhill was the Berkely in Greenwich Ave, Bilton Grange opened Nov. 1956. I was there opening day with schoolmate both aged 9, the film was Bus Stop with Marliyn Monroe,but they would not let us in because it was an A classification(needed adult supervision).

I used to work with Hydes pie shop son, their meat pies were excellent.

Was that Steven? Betty Hyde was my uncle's sister and I was in the same year as Steven at Riley. They used to live in one of the streets that backed onto Rileys playing fields.
