I got a pair of winklepickers from Ziggys for the new school year in the late 70's Moved to MId-Wales a few months later, and, due to said shoes, acquired the nickname Chisel. As an aside, Roy Chuter lived in the first-floor flat in the mid-90's (the war years).
Oooh, good call, possibly. Led of course by the late, great Jez Bird, a criminally-underrated songwriter.
Different times!Were The Piranhas ever completely hatless though?
There are only 4 in the picture, maybe the one missing is Reginald Fredrick Hornsbury, the bass player that is wearing a hat in all the photos on Google.
I would say not The Lamberettas because of the clothing, I imagine they would be wearing smarter mod gear.Oooh, good call, possibly. Led of course by the late, great Jez Bird, a criminally-underrated songwriter.
Anyway, I love the name of the newsagents: 'Smokemart'
EDIT: Piranhas might be a good call as well.
I moved to Brighton in the mid 80s for a job above Dunn&Co and never realised there was a flat next door. I also recently discovered I still own a 7" Tom Hark single in a picture sleeve, bought at a time I never imagined I'd end up living most of my life here!
I used to see a few films in my youth there. The last one I saw was probably Aliens with less than 10 people in the cinema, in the era when you had a support film and then the main event. I remember it had a wierd sort of wavy plaster over the walls, possibly for better sound reasons.
Looks like the last time the windows were painted the ladies dart club still played there
