Siouxsie bats for the other side these days.
Did you see/meet any others from the Bromley Contingent?
Mecca, won and lost a good few quid there, getting a couple of hundred on back then was no problem, The John manly shop became a Laddies. next to the Sun.Used to take phone bets from me no account crap then.
Case we must have crossed paths I was betting there from 65 until 86, never a bet under 40 quid, usually tons.
Crags : I was well into punk....read the NME religiously ....the BC were probably at the Lyceum

the Fox no was NL based so did Mon, Wed, Fri at Wembley and Tue, Thur at the Stow. Not every day obviously.Bet you've got a few stories!
Yes he hooked up for a while with Jonny Hollins and Rachid Harkouk, not unusual to see them in Ravenscourt on a Sun afternoon knocking 6 bells out of kids, Harkouk punching the air when thundering a shot past an 8 year old WAC he was Hollins no better.

Indeed Casemoney, used to drive down the north circ to Wembley, with my brother hanging off the back of my Suzuki. Happy days.
This is just a few days ago at Paul Cook's 60th. Siouxsie with Pam and Paul's missus.
Sat was Music night for me. I won just under £1600 from John White in 63 at Sandown John would always stand a hefty bet, gave it back to him at Stamford bridge a couple days later, WAC I was, that was a small fortune then, I had no sense of the value of money growing up in a racing family.
^^^21-22 I was a a fifteen year old eejit. and it's been all downhill since.
I'm gone......
I'm gone......
Nearly 40 years ago at the 100 club, unreal how time goes so quickly... and I'm wasting it on chit chat 
The Banshees drummer on the left found fame with another band and in a different role, of course.
