Wasn't there a record shop on the Quadrant too? I seem to remember seeing the Never Mind the Bollocks posters there, initially with parts covered up.

Dave Panto joined Kemp Town CC from Maccabi. He was a really nice bloke, but huge, even at a young age.

In a vehicle, I mean.

Take the last part of the URL, in this case the "CCo1Ffn9_u8" and sandwich it in between the novocode (yt)...(/yt) substituting the parenthesis with [] these ones.

You mean apart from the Virgin shop opposite?
I remember Fine Records in Brighton Square - that was the place that I used to buy most of mine. They had a particularly good reggae selection. The people there were also amazingly tolerant of herberts hanging around all day but buying very little.
There was also the shortlived record shop in Waterloo Place in Hove run by Kaz from Fine Records. He used to offer massive discounts to his regulars and not surprisingly went bust after a few months.

The "rocket" at Hollingbury park. Which was a rocket shaped climbing frame. Opp Varndean.
Its still called the rocket park by most people even tho the rocket disappeared in the early 80s.
Indeed there is even a tribute, in the rubber tarmac (or whatever it is) is a picture of a rocket.

Williams & Glyn Bank at the bottom of St James Street.
There was a record shop next door where I bought most of my singles in or around 1980-1982. I remember buying Town Called Malice, Parties Fears Two and Poison Arrow there amongst other things. Can't remember its name.
Is Swifts Sports still there on the Old Steine?

The William Tell in Queens Road, it usually used to kick off in there on Saturday nights.
Then finish up in The Bonanza at the top of Queens Road, which was a bit like a Wimpey.
Then fun and games on the last train back to Shoreham!
Happy days.

Nearly. It's still there on Grand Parade, opposite bottom of North Road.

Probably the last "proper" sports shop in Brighton. Im not including JJB and Sports Soccer etc
I wonder if they are still the suppliers of the Scout uniforms as well??
