Subject: RE: Help: Poles Apart From: Gurney Date: 11 Feb 12 - 04:30 PM Frank handed custody back to Curley and went to live with his lady on a small farm. The 'Poles' closed not too long after and was converted to other uses. I was a regular there from 1974 until it closed, sometimes visiting twice a week. We went there on the evening of our first day in NZ, having spotted it during our first jet-lagged walk around Newmarket, where I'd organised a job from 11,000 miles away in England. |

Subject: RE: Help: Poles Apart From: GUEST,Purrpuss Date: 11 Feb 12 - 07:04 AM I knew Curly from when he lived in London and was supposed to have several sidelines as well as folk clubs. We emigrated to Nz about the same time but to different cities. I heard he was also carrying out some less legal activities in Aucland and that the Poles Apart was nicknamed the Legs Apart as a result of this. |

Subject: RE: Help: Poles Apart From: GUEST,Annette Trifonoff Date: 02 Mar 11 - 07:33 AM Bill and John Taylor may still be on Waiheke Island. Lynne Pike is Lynne Clark and still singing as far as I know. Frank Winter died in May 2003. Curley Delmonte I heard had died. The Poles became a restaurant then an 'adult shop'last time I saw it. I do not know anything about the big blonde, sorry. The Hamilton County Bluegrass Band have been performing again lately. It was a great place to sing. |
