All the clubs having exotic dancers on a Sunday afternoon before you go home and have your dinner.
and downhill club packed out Monday afternoon and nightAn extra show at noon on Monday for Washington & District cos once wasn't enough.
I was never a fan but what a cracking cultural phenomenon it was.Never been a big fan of wmcs, always smokey stinking places and then probably smelt worse when the ban came in. Used to work in loads all over the north east and there were lots of Brian potter type stewards
We've obviously lost a load, downhill, castletown,farringdon and now red House has fairly recently gone. Wonder if Newtown Aycliffe is still there, that was a huge club.
Absolute thing of the past like, always found it cringy as fuck tbh like. I can see they served a purpose when heavy industry was about but they don't fit in with the modern world.
In some aspects I agree mate, the community aspect I completely agree, I still found the wmc and it's rules cringy mind.People don’t tend to live in and around their workplace, they gave that community spirit that has been lost.
The modern world is pretty shit in comparison.
Dunno whether it was just age but the beer was always seemed a lot strongerI was never a fan but what a cracking cultural phenomenon it was.
Have to agree having been on both sides, as a punter and also working on the equipment and dealing with the stewards etc, remember getting booted out of the 'boardroom' as there was a committee meeting onAbsolute thing of the past like, always found it cringy as fuck tbh like. I can see they served a purpose when heavy industry was about but they don't fit in with the modern world.
I never really went but looking back it is amazing a whole (well quite a few) community went to the same place on a Friday and Saturday.Dunno whether it was just age but the beer was always seemed a lot stronger
