Just after this we moved from Handsworth to Gloucester. I was eleven and not happy about it. However on reflection....well done dad!

One of the finest picture houses around in its day especially at night with the KINGS lit up in red neon. About time we had the old ALBION sign lit up on the front of the stadium as well.

I was on holiday in South Wales with my mom and dad and their friends which took in the quarter final and semi final. We took the house tv on holiday with us as the cottage we were staying in did not have one. I had it on the back seat with me holding on to it like grim death in case it slipped off the seat. We had to set it up on the landing and we took turns in holding the set top aerial in the air to get a picture of the Portugal game.
