Oakdale Club, 1961 1964
A Memory of Oakdale.
I have really fond memories of my teenage years spent in Kenyon Rd, Oakdale, where I lived with my mum Jessie, dad Horace, or Harry as he was known to his mates, and my brothers Michael and Keith Grimes. I will always remember the Drayson boys who lived opposite, they were such charming and cheeky boys and all good looking but just a little too young for me at the time, although I did enjoy the flirting that went on between us. I loved going to the Oakdale Boys Club to dance on a weekend, wearing my 1960's skirt with net petticoats which flared out when I did the jive. After the club closed we used to go across to the Oakdale pub, although under age, I enjoyed a pony (the little drink with a big kick). I met up with friends and had a good laugh. Does anyone else have similar memories to mine? Sylvia Grimes, now Webb
