Goonerhater, were you down Flamingos when that traveller decided to stick his pint glass in my face? It was someones birthday I think, possible DC's, and there were a few out for it?
I can remember when one someone stuck a Blackpool B&B door in your head (accidentally, may i add) :-)
Adam do you remember the time we went on holiday with Will, Jay, Neil and Simon on a lads holiday to Malia, we went on the booze cruise and half way through you realise that the bird you fancied was on the beach so you thought it would be a good idea to swim to shore.... You dived in and nearly drowned

Up a steep stairway above the shops next door to The Sultan pub in Lee High Road. The Sultan is no more but it was on the corner of Lee High Road and Clarendon Road, about two hundred yards or so from Lewisham clock tower.
Cut my teeth in the Broomfield Church Hall Discotheque, circa 1974. Happy days. Used to be a young lady in huge platform boots we nicknamed Moonstomper. Smooching to Donny Osmond and David Cassidy. Where have all the good times gone?

Those now a club near the clocktower called Sahara, which I'll give a miss! Apparently it plays a lot of 80s.
Some terrific memories there. I lost part of my youth in nearly all of the aforementioned places.
Who remembers the Old Trading Post in Bexleyheath? Drink yourself around the world. Had some big nights in there.
The Prince Albert in Deptford on a Sunday. Gilly's around the back of the Old Kent Road. Lazy Toad in Beckenham then all back to the Catford Cricket Club - secret knock on the back door and drink til dawn. Ah, great days.
