    Hi Steph No problem it did look like Nicky still see him now and again , sadly Sid passed away a few years ago .Yes I knew Alan and Dave his brother who also knocked about with Ian ( Twink ) Bottomley , bumped into Ian at Brid weekender this year, not seen him for about 35 years or so , remember The Taurus in Huddersfield on Sunday nights and one or two alldayers too with the infamous Frank n Twink deejaying , both had great collections. Happy days Martyn

    anyone selling records on ebay should be made to buy a record off craig morer, $7.50 postage for one 45 and it's in a box you could get 8 or 9 in and it has 6 or 7 stiffeners. belt and braces from craig, joe. Yes Craig is the man his mailers are exceptional belt and braces , but i've had 12's from dealers stuffed in my mailbox with no protection , cringed but been lucky it can be a gamble Martyn

    I couldn't believe that the Mirfield Pentagon became the epicentre of UK club culture when Hard Times kicked off. I went to the same venue when it was called The Ginza Strip as a 14 year old circa 1969. Some bastard from Mirfield Modern chinned me and welcomed me to the realities of surviiving in Mirfield whilst trying to be a flash twat. Served me well throughout the future as it happens..... Ginza Strip Ian new one on me sounds a bit Gangsta but yeh still makes me smile drivin past The Salvation Army Drop In now charity shop ex Hard Times ex mirfield Pentagon what would Sacha think Martyn
