Does anybody remember going to the jazz festival at the Black Prince.
I can recall seeing trumpeter Ken Sims playing in an amateur trad band competition. He already had his own band as a pro, he asked me not to tell anyone and drop him in it. He didn’t win anyway.
Also Shorty and Them, singer was Van Morrison before he was well known, rude and nasty even then!!

My father, Luigi Cascarini, opened and owned The Silver Lounge from 1939 until he retired in 1966. All his family including my self (Maria) worked there for many years. I would love to know if anybody out there has a photo of the front of the shop. No one in the family as one. Maria Richardson
The building with pointed roof, left of centre of the pic is Bexley Library. On the right I remember the first building as a stationery shop and further into the photo on the right would be the Post Office. On the left, just out of pic, was as newsagent called 'Rivers'. This later became Martins and currently 'Golden News.' I remember 'Rivers' as being one of the few stockists of American DC Comics in the 1970s on a spinner franchised by Thorpe and Porter, who imported comics from USA.
