Alan Esdaile… I can smell Disque Bleu by just looking at the photo! Well I think that’s what I can smell?
Martyn Baker… Owned by Guy?
Peter Thomson… Is that a cheese?
Patricia Wapshott… I remember that place but can’t remember who ran it , think he was called Guy and his flat above was so cool , he had a sunken bed and a vast record collection , my friend Camille was seeing him and that’s how I got to see the flat . We sat and listened to David Bowie albums while he smoked a joint and I must have been about 15 then and didn’t even know what a joint was ! I just remember that it smelt disgusting and politely said no when he offered it to me that was also smelt incense sticks burning . The innocence of my youth !
Gin Genie… Guy still drinks in the Nelson on a Monday night playing shove
Will Hadfield… I think this is where people hung out in a disco downstairs owned by a bloke called guy or max
Pete Brazier… Didn’t it become the cheese emporium? Probably the Swiss blue what you thought you could smell lol
Chris Baker… Played downstairs a few times. Usually with our electrics swimming in the mix of beer and “toilet water” and getting shocks off the Mike’s and my guitar! Health & Safety? What’s that?
Jim Hobbs…. How about old beer and cigarettes.

Jemma Yasmin… What a lovely building I never knew what was here it’s been a building site as long as I can remember …. do you know when and why it burnt down? With the downstairs of Fagins and this what an amazing place the old town would have been at this time?
