Saw Bonnie and Clyde there. Remember a snow storm as I came out. Sad so many local cinemas went under.

I did too, I've got it in the back of my mind that for some reason it was on a monday, not the usual Friday or Saturday night, can't remember any snow

Gleave Square flats opposite.

….yep, that picture is dated 1975. We lived on the right parallel to Everton Rd, I reckon we were forced to move in ‘71 and our houses amongst the last to be demolished, my next door neighbour moved to Gleave Square flats.

Re that photo of Everton Road 1975–2023, further along on the left handside going into town was The Everton Red Triangle boxing club situated upstairs with a drinking club downstairs, ran by Joe Curran, it lasted a good few years starting possibly in the 1980’s and finishing in around 2010. It was very popular on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights and some functions on a Sunday afternoon, with the boxing club open most week nights and producing quite a few good quality boxers including Colin Dunne who won a version of the World Lightweight Championship and Noel Quarless who fought for the British Heavyweight title.

….yep, Red Triangle was on Everton Rd and that building on the right was originally a barracks. I most certainly remember Quarless, he was a big unit.
