No Lyn, we lived in Hockey on the Flat. I was too young to dance, or at least to have the confidence to do so!same here...very happy memories we lived just a short walk away and went most saturday mornings delighting in going down to the front to dance to the lastest songs after the film had ended...did you live near to the the villa cross

Seem to have developed a stammer!!!!!I recall being taken to this cinema by my Dad,with my brother to see The Longest Day.
There were a couple of Royal Marines at the entrance. Little did I realise that I would spend 23 years serving with The Corps later in my life.
