I get side tracked so easily Jimfurd,
Hope this will get your thread back on track, Youth clubs :-
Cub scouts in Thurso................ Life Boys / Boys' Brigade 8th West Church Inverness ( sadly I found it had been demolished on my return up here) Cameron Boys club behind the Central School. The latter is where I learned to play table tennis which became my second favourite sport ( no prizes for guessing my first favourite.) Got up to a reasonable standard and played in Inverness league, gave up with the arrival of the thick sponge bats which I feel ruined the game. Victor Barna and Johnny Leach were the big UK favourites who gave an exhibition in the Drill Hall ???? around 1955 but could have been earlier, They certainly inspired me.
Cinemas:-
Palace, Playhouse, Empire Theatre and La Scala the latter being where the threepenny matinees were held, Batman and Robin serialised was the biggest attraction for me, that would be around 1951.
footnote,: couldnt afford the Brylcream on my pay Scarlet, I needed the money for fags and beer...oops sorry Jimfurd !!
