Jim Hardie 496 #4 Posted May 16, 2018 The Chinese buffet was The Gambit, if my memory serves. The Gambit was further up the road. The buffet was much more recent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Daven 10 #12 Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) The nightclub was Turn ups the wine bar at the side was called Bloomers That's right - there was a door through from the wine bar to the club. The last time i went in there was in March 1983 for a good friends hen night. Memories of dancing to Toto 'Africa' are flooding back now Happy days.
