Cinema on A Saturday as A Boy

I grew up in Driglington late 50s/ 60s and remember going to watch Roy Rogers and Hopalong Cassidy, now that was another lifetime ago.
As I got a bit older lots of us drig lads used to visit a coffee shop in the main street - cannot remember its name, and met lots of Birstall girls there.  I also remember the first 3d movie I saw there, it was the House of Wax, we had to wear those red and green glasses.

A memory of Birstall in West Yorkshire shared on Monday, 30th April 2007.

RE: RE: Cinema on A Saturday as A Boy

Re Saturday matinees, me too. I also remember the coffe club, it was called Expresso Bongo. I feel I must know you as I was one of the lads who hung out there, and I was very much attracted to a girl called Jackie Smithson. I also saw that same movie in 3D at the cinema. I would love to know who you are, I think a friend Crieff from Oakwell Roadd. Please email crieff1@optusnet.com.au
