When we were kids....

Where was that. I don't remember any outdoor baths. We used to go to Broadway and Chadderton.
When Abraham Moss leisure center first opened we would go there.

My next door neighbour talks like that. Great lad, huge Barnsley fan, he goes home and away and he used to go to England home and away too. When we moved in and started talking, the topic turned to football and when I told him I was a City fan he asked if I knew Daft Donald. I asked how the fuck did he know Daft Donald and he said he used to see him at England games.
I've not seen "lend me 10p" daft Donald for years myself mate. Talking of Barnsley still, I drove past a school there about 5 years ago and was amazed to see 4 lads wearing home City shirts and one wearing an away shirt playing footy on the school field.

There are two kids on my street who wear City shirts. I've seen a few round here. Mostly you see Barnsley and Rag shirts.
 
We (Winsford, Mid/Cheshire) had our own mate and what a brilliant time as kids and teenagers we had there.Even now people still talk about the place and what we used to get up to in the late 1950s - 1970s.Place has long been shut, but you can`t erase the memories Barcon.I honestly remember my Mum and Dad my best mate and his Mum and Dad taking us to an outdoor baths right by Ringway Airport way back in either the very late 1950`s or early 1960`s.
My mate died their jumping off the diving board with a lolly in his mouth form memory
