Originally from Kirkby in Ashfield I moved to Skegby in 1976. Skegby use to have the most drinking establishments in a small area. Up by the Rifle use to be the Greyhound which was bulldozers and is now COOP. Just down the road on the hill was the Anchor which is now a Methodist chapel. I became a member at Triple S when it was just a squash club, only ever played pool there. British Legion was just up the road before you hit Stanton Hill. Blue Bell was alway rough and the New Cross is a bit of a faces pub. Mansfield back in the 80's was amazing. 8 Bells, Town Mill, The Village, Masons Arms for the rockers followed by Digby's or Valentino's night clubs. 7 women to every bloke! John Cockle was the posers pub back in the day with a car park full of XR2, XR3 and 205 GTI's. Good off with the local Man Utd glory hunters in 92 at the Cockle. After early doors in Sutton or Mansfield on a Saturday it was down Nottingham to Rock City. Your video brought back some great memories and some not so great!
Brought back some memories. Loads of Pubs obviously not there anymore, which is a shame. Enjoyed watching, so thank you.

Went to the blue bell once. Unfriendly. Never went again.

I like the nag, spoons and speed the plough
