john65 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Cheers Gordon I know there were not as many as the last one 3 years ago and maybe I got the numbers a bit wrong we reckon now by the book we had on the door there were about 150 this time. I organised it early January by popular request booked the room and started to spread the word then I did put a post on here and I also set up an Herries Road Re-union group on Facebook, sorry you missed it it was a good night the diesel fumes very thick as you can imagine. Hope you can make the next one in 3 years. I was at Herries from 1974 to when they closed, I retired at 65 in 2008 it's not the same job now Gordon as you probably know.

slammindoor Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) worked at Heries rd quite a bit --in fact I took all the letters down from above the front of the garage-Sheffield Corporation Transport---about 1974--went up the ladder 29 times to do it---whilst my mate footed it and never went up once---------remember Ken Cowley very well died in his 40,s and was a great music (and hi fi ) connousere --pity he never got to know the wizardry of MP3 digital music--he would be spinning in his grave at 33 RPM---great times but very little money Edited May 19, 2011 by slammindoor spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
