Hi john st clair. Thanks for saving my sanity.  It was the gardeners.  We also went in the crown of an evening where we eventually were banned from taking part in the weekly  pin ball machine competition.  The prize for the highest score was either a bottle of port or sherry and we won 12 x bottles on the trot which we used for the toast  at our wedding in 1969.  Believe the land lady's name might be kitty and you didnt mess with her.  Also not 100% sure but think the premises were used in sean bean's film when saturday comes.  BTW Ernest eventually became a roller and stayed there until he was made redundant in the 80s.  Sadly he's no longer with us.  He used to light up a room when he came in.  What a character.  Correction to earlier dates.   Richard married 1969 left hallamshire after road accident in 1973.

Hi 

 

Did you know any of the office staff, there was a girl called Margaret Hill I had a  thing for her around 1968, but I was a bit naive and she rightly dumped me. would love to know how she is and what she is up to now
