great memories of Saturday afternoons at the Bug-Hut atching Flash Gordon,Hopalong Cassidy,The Lone Ranger etc.There were always long queues and we soon twigged that if ,when you reached the pay-box,and went again to the back of the queue,by the time you paid for your ticket the downstairs would be full,so you went upstairs for the same money.The only problem was,if you were wearing clogs,you weren’t allowed upstairs because it was carpeted. The downstairs floor was just concrete and occasionally,some clever sod on the back row would roll a large ball-bearing which would clunk against the cast-iron chair legs on it’s way down and finish with a resounding clang against the heating pipes below the screen accompanied by loud cheers. -Happy days, Tecky
