Diving Club & Soccer Club

I remember the good parties at the Diving Club. (The Carribean Evening with a floating dance floor.) Anyone remember ????

Soccer club was a like bee hive of activities on a Saturday night. One would walk (ha,ha) from one club to the other............ ::) ;)

And working on a Saturday (slavery??) and getting one Saturday off a month.

Hey Susan - definitely, how could we forget those diving club caribean evenings? I remember at one of them I lost a contact lens at about 3am and there was Helen McCartney (remember her, hubby was Neville) and I crawling around next to the pool looking for it. We found it suprisingly enough all things considered!!! What an awesome feast they used to put on - fit for a king - the guys would go diving for weeks before that to stock up on the kreef, mussels, etc. Can you remember who used to do the music - I know at the soccer club it was always "Dancing Denz" - remember?

It seems the soccer club has always been a hive of activity from way back 1970. Nick Huntley (The Butcher) was the main person running it at the time. Was that not also where Vivienne sat on the sink and flooded the place? Sandy B?
We would all park our cars around the field on the weekends and watch soccer as if Man United was playing Chelsea.
