Yup Mandy , Wilko is well off the scene now . I've been told he sold his records for various reasons. I saw him a few weeks ago shopping in a local retail centre was fine

[grant]

anyone see/rememeber Michelle at the Casino - she lived in Salford, ginger hair in pigtails?

also - couple of girls I went out with at Wigan - Sylvia from Ripon - hung around with the Leeds crowd, and Terry from Wigan - anyone know them/seen them?

Saw Anita from Oldham about 5yrs ago now, not seen Dave Holland since Wigan. Another lad we used to know well at the Casino was Mildoo - think he came from Bolton?

Was Mildoo's name John Mills?

Grant

Dunno Mandy - always knew him as Mildoo - hung around near Sandy corner - knew most of his brigade. Think he collected LP's. He was a mate of Dave Holland and Anita

And the sod used to take the p**s out of my balck baggies with 'Prince & Princess' embroiderd on the patch pockets!

Hey they were cool Mandy - stsarted a bit of a craze off - a lad called Gary from Newcastle did the same - think his related to what was then the Nightwatch c/up - Ellingtons - Lips To Your Heart. My excuse or mitagating circumstances is that I was only 16 at the time

Ah, must know you then Andy - who is siz? The pants did become quite infamous c78 at the Casino mate. Yes youre right Michelle did have a flat in Salford, remember us dropping her off there once - she used to go out with my mucker Tim. You may also have known Ady Reeves from our neck of the woods (Cheadle Hulme) and the Romiley crowd we knocked abiut with - Lloyd, Cheesey, Russ, and Gasser

[Guest Soultown andy]

Remember Siz now - didnt he used to dj at the Carousel/Belle Vue? Tony Justs - used to buy all me stuff (incl lots of boots in those days) from him. Used to be another market stall in the undergound sold some Northern too, although mainly punk stuff - they used to have records/sleeves all over the walls. Me and Tim got surrounded by punks there once - hilarious - bullshitted our way out of it though.

[Guest Soultown andy]

Hi grant,salmon from rochdale,still chuckle about those pants.Do you still see cheesy,used to bump into gill at stafford,on a sadder note Ross died in 99,didnt know if you knew,frosty went weird and moved to york & i'm still a fat bastard

Kin-ell Salmon - how are you mate - do remember Ross, sad note that one mate. Also remember Sean and Billy from, Rochdale. Gill - are you on about the Gill that used to come with us - still see her now and again mate. Rumour that Cheesey died but never had confirmation - was told by both Russ and Mickey Power.

Wish I had a picture of them pants! They were the biz

Are you still going to soul nites? I was djing at the Stockport Guild Hall up until December when I 'retired'. Got fed up of everyone asking me for Prionce and Princess!!!! Funny thing about that record though a girl came up to me one night there and asked for it - said everywhere she went no-one had it or had heard of it so she was utterly amazed when I pulled it out the case and spun it for her. Didnt tell her the record title stole its name from a pair of pants worn by a handsome young youth many years ago

Be good to see you again mate.

Miss hanging out with Wilky and Rug,Mick Gavin r.i.p and the wellinborough lads,The amazing Georgina Archdeacon from time to time including with Keith Harpur .Mac from either Ripley or Belper if I can remember right.All these folks knew how to have a good laugh as well as getting up to mind boggling antics.I had a holiday at her majs expense around 79 and returning to the land of the free around 81 was all fired up and ready to get back at the nighter scene but after going to a few was badly disapointed and for me that it seemed was it however many years later now never having forgotten the music or the folk am suprised to see there are what looks to be tasty events ie Burnleyso I guess I am going to have to venture out once more.Sadly some of my good friends of old are no longer here but they live on in my memory.Sometimes in company I think of things we have done and burst out laughing (this gets some odd stares but hey I gues I have always been an odd type of fellow to many)Foo ken high elle I do miss those who have passed on when I think of them.

Was a big friend of Sylvia from ripon Grant, she married a mate of mine from york, Andy scott. Also her partner in crime Bev, who strangely enough i contacted again recently, think she`s still up Ripon way, and recently married a lad called Dean from wales, when i spoke to her she was telling me she was out and about again and was a regular at the Lowton. We had one hell of a party at hers and sylvia`s flat in ripon one new years eve early eighties

The internet has made it possible to track down pretty much everyone I ever hung out with, only one had already passed away when I contacted his family, the one and only Bob Shoreman and of course we all miss Martyn Ellis. I suppose the moral is do it, do it now and keep on doing it until you can't anymore.
