Oh no. Bless her. A lovely girl who used to hang out with us. I’m sure she’d liked to be remembered as a top ‘dresser’, who travelled with the boys in the 80’s. RIP Deb. From a Clitheroe Claret. Give Humph and Gaz B my regards. X

Re: Best music gig you ever saw?
The Clash, King George's Hall, Blackburn I think in 1980/ 1981. They were supported by the Notsensibles who started singing Burnley songs at the end of their set.
