This year’s annual ‘get together’ for those who can remember (or need reminding about) the Good Old Days is at the Star & Garter, Copnor Road, on Friday 9 December (just north of the Burrfields  Rd turn off, on the right, if you’re driving out of Pompey)

University lecturer, longtime local musician and recently historian of popular music - especially in and around Portsmouth - and Hampshire cricket. My blogs are entirely about that topic
