Growing Up In Stafford Until 1975
A Memory of Stafford.
I grew up on the Weston Park Estate and my close friends were Ann Parker and Linda Jay, as we all lived a few doors away. We used to go to Riverside disco approximate 1970 and the Young Farmers disco on Friday nights at the County Showground. Also the Yeoman, the rugby club on the Newport Rd I think, the Top of the World, The Place and The Placemate in Stoke and do you remember the Alpine Lodge pub at Rickerscote. When we were younger we went to the Saturday club at the Odeon cinema. We used to go for lunch at Jenks cafe in town and felt very grown up! There was a Debenhams too then. We frequented the park in our early teens and the station cafe before we graduated to the Swan bar when we were at stafford college. I haven't lived there since I got married but often go on a nostalgic shopping trip with my friend Ann. It would be lovely to hear if anyone else remembers any of my old haunts. We were soul mad so there was quite a following and still is. So share your memories too.
