Found the books for the Pinehurst/Alehouse folk club.Peter Patrick Finucane(banjoman) attened the opening night on the 16.9.71 and became member No 8,Miss Maggie Bowers(Mrs banjoman) late of Flat 5 44 Onslow Rd arrived on the 30.9.71 and the brazen Bennions Barbara and Joyce signed in on the 20.1.72.
We organized a coach trip to the Keele folk festival 17th of June 72, at the back of the members book is a list of those who went, one of which was Les Jones could that be you L in C ? if not then it has to be Les Jones our brilliant doorman second only to the great Godfrey.I remember seeing some poor sod with his legs eyes and fingers crossed biting hard on a beer mat, Les would not let him out till the singer had finished. Btw Barbara, Les was a male nurse
      We moved to the Cattlemarket on the 2.3.72 and the club closed on the 7.12.72, 15 months! beat that Clive Pownceby.
