Ah, I remember it now. Looked bloody awful.

Salford has had it's share of shithole boozers down the years.

I remember when Church Street in Eccles used to be buzzing on Friday nights in the late 80s. I had the misfortune to revisit the place a couple of years ago. Bloody hell, it has gone right down the pan.

Haha the Rainbow Rooms. A blast from the past. That's where they filmed the night club scene from the Paul Calf Video Diary. That was upmarket compared to the Silver Screen (which has been a Wetherspoons for 20 years). That was rough.

Top House, Grapes, Church, Lamb (where they filmed a couple of scenes for Pauline Calfs Video Diary) and Duke of York were my haunts as a 16 year old.

Scene from the Lamb
