Does anyone remember Grobs where you could buy something like Tiger Milk in Jugs. Also the Wine Bar opposite the Town Hall (I met my Husband here) where they had groups like Hot Pot Belly band (Fix me up some bacon and beans) and of course the infamous Andy Prowler who used to swing from the chandeliers? whilst playing the harmonica.There was Parkers.Please refresh my memory regarding others.

Some we do Chameleon. The Hot Pot Belly Band with the late great Pete Boyle, a very good friend to me. Andy Prowler, who's poster still graces my living room wall, and then there were the two bands I played for that had residencies at Grobs. Tempus fugit.

I meant more feeling my age now rather than the younger days Jim but, yes. Fond memories of Grobs amongst others.
