The Capitol, Liscard c1960

I would come here on a Saturday morning for the matinee shows in the 1950s. I remember singing 'We are the Ovaltiners happy girls and boys'. Some time in the 1960s it became the ABC cinema and in the late 1960s it held dances every weekend. On a Friday it was heavy rock night and we would go and watch local bands such as Black Widow and Blister. I met my wife Susan here for the first time and we are about to celebrate our 40th Anniversary in September 2011. I would love to hear from anyone that remebers me from those times.
