Spennymoor Rink

A Memory of Spennymoor.

Dancing the night away at the rink, from 10pm until 2am on Friday nights, was the highlight of my teenage years. My boyfriend played in saxophone and clarinet in the resident band. Had some great times, felt so grown up staying out so late. George Pennington was my boyfriend's name. I have lived in Australia for the past 41 years but have never forgotten my nights at the rink. I lived in Leeholm but travelled to the rink every week. I would give anything to have just one more night dancing at the rink. Saw Johhny Dankworth and Emile Ford at the rink.
