We had a number of celebs pop in, including Kevin Rowland, The Alarms Mike Peters, Transvision Vamps Wendy James and the singing gardener Kim Wilde. It was also a frequent haunt of Accy Webs Gayle Knight in her "Boy George" years!!

I didn't just frequent it - I worked there!

I loved it, I got far less money for a Saturday than my friend did who worked at the sport shop down the road but I didn't care. I spent most of my wages on records as soon as I'd been paid.

Camera letting me down again, a blurry photo. Just look at this, the original tiles each side of the steps, up to what was Morts on Blackburn Road. Now fancy that!
