It was 1980, I'm 4th from the left, welived in the pub at the time, in that year, we came second in the league to the Poacher, we won the Knockout trophy, and I won the league individual title, a cracking team, and great memories, should do a reunion!

The other two are Andy Hale next to me fifth from left, and Dave Peet far right.

All right Steve - I worked behind bar at pub, I remember you were quite a pool player, if i remember rightly you played at County Level - Some happy memories of "The Boot"

Hi buddy,

I remember the bar work well! I'm sure we drank more than we sold, apart from Friday night disco night, usually more like the Wild West most of the time! Can you still eat 2 Chinese's boy??? Yeah I used to play a lot of pool, had some great times, completely mad most of the time, but brilliant times, and a great pool team.

hi steve thats weird i posted this picture last week in "holidays"(don't ask) having forgotten that i had put it on before, but for some reason it is reversed i think, also a coincidence that you left a comment on this one at the same time i put the other on.
your right we should have a reunion and get all those ball and booters to turn out again.
check out the boot website for a good laugh.

Hi Frank,
Well as far as the reunion, not sure how we would start that one off, do you still see any of the guys, could you start the ball rolling? As far as the boot website, what is the site address? You never know, I look forward to seeing all you guys again soon hopefully.
Steve.

much the same at sams we still play darts and doms and we still have the same teams!!
samsbar.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk is the site loads of old photos on there.
