Between 1972, when it opened, and 1975 we were regulars at the Aquarius.  I look forwards to seeing your photos, Gerty :) x

I wonder if we were ever there on the same night as well then Aitch. Had some good times in there, scampi and chips in a basket - corr we thought we were so posh  :)

We only ever went into the Adam and Eve once, it was so busy it took ages to get to the bar. Hubbies hair was wet through he was so hot so we drank our drinks straight back and left
Gerty looking forward to your photos when you have time to post them :)

It might be a while - husband has announced they are in the loft!  :(

Well, we've waited knocking on 40 years to see them so I guess another month or two won't hurt.  :)

.... and, OC,  I think there is more than a fair chance we were all there on the same night.

Aah - that's where it allow went downhill! Took my then girlfriend to see The Drifters at the Aquarius (Akker) and planned to propose to her over that obligatory soup - sorry chicken - in a basket.

Bottled it but managed to pluck up the courage to ask her when I dropped her off at her home - she accepted!!

That was in 1976 and we've been happily married for almost 37 years!

Aww   :-*

Just for the record, I saw the pair of love birds whilst I was driving this afternoon.
I presume they were walking home from town.  ;)

Awww Alsatian love at the Aqua eh  :-*

The first time we went it was packed and we ended up sat on the steps in the aisle to watch the show.

I also remember taking my daughter in the late 70's  early 80's (I think) to watch a childrens panto, she always enjoyed it.
Anyone else remember that?

Yes, I do.  We'd definitely be there at the same time as you for the panto.   :)

Yep, we were walking back from town laden with bags of shopping. We were hoping to meet up with a public spirited benevolent taxi driver who would have taken us home at no cost to us. Unfortunately we didn't meet any!!!  8)

You're right, I didn't see any either.
I also saw you again closer to your home when I dropped my next customer off in the same area. 2 jobs on the trot in 5 mins lol.
I was going to stop and say hello the second time but your heavy overloaded shopping bags must have made you run down the hill, cos I didn't see you on my way back.  ;)

The reason you didn't see us was because I told SWMBO to hurry up or he'll catch us and expect to be invited in for a cuppa!!!

Seriously, if we'd seen you we would have invited you in (and mugged you for your takings whilst you were necking the Earl Grey)!!  :o

I'm not worth mugging  :(
No school contracts this week, sod all cash jobs off the ranks. I did one more job after I saw you for the second time.
Would that be about 2.30ish pm
A ten to four I pulled off the rank and drove home.

I promise I will.  The loft however, is one of his man-caves.  Lots of grunting, harrumphing and swearing goes on up there. There's always hammering , clanking and rather bizarre dragging noises too. I daren't even put my head through the door!
