kidneystone   23 #495 Posted February 21, 2019 I grew up at Page Hall and seem to remember Popes being on the corner of Firth park Road and Bolsover Road East (Little Bolsover) before moving round the corner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Essex. Hi, my aunt and uncle owned that shop back in the late '40's and early '50's before Stan Cave . It was they who named it McGreggors, I think. And coincidentally, John Cave, Stan's son, worked for me for 6 years back in the late '70's and early '80's and we had kept in touch until I moved abroad 16 years ago.

Do you know Gary Spooner?  I went to school with him and since being old enough to join the club he has been a regular, as was his father.

Yes I know Gary well. We played in the same snooker team for F.P.W.M.C. for a few years. I still see him now and again, he's still the same kind of bloke as he always was. Also see his brother Mick as well. His dad Sam was on the committee for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
