Does Anyone Remember The Christmas Parties For Children At Richards Knife Factor

Recommended Posts

It was the highlight of my 

Childhood, being invited to the Christmas party at Richards.   I was 10 in 1956 and had never seen such a spread or been with so many children, all enjoying the festive event.  There was entertainment too, though I don't remember what.  I only remember the treats, the crackers and the little gifts, and my utter delight at being there.

I went to a couple of Christmas parties at Burngreave Liberal Club around about the same time and recall the same feelings.

We're was the Burngreave Liberal Club. I only ask because my dad was a member of the Nether Edge Liberal club, and went there often.
