Title: Re: Hall Drive schools of yesteryear Post by: Snoozy on August 21, 2021, 12:28:26 AM My grandad was caretaker there in Hustler when we came back from Canada in 75 so that swimming pool was my playground in 1975. The pool around the theatre at Boyntom was full of tadpoles. Big part of my childhood that place

It had a very pronounced drop from shallow to deep end. |
