My parents moved to Wakefield when I went to Uni. Although I went back to see them I never thought of it as home. But I recently took some of my southern friends back to introduce them to Rugby League. The top picture was from the Hotel front door, I think Holiday inn express. Very welcoming but we did enjoy an evening at the Red Shed.

Hertford Tiger After I settled in Liverpool to teach, my trips back to Wakefield became less frequent. Your post brought to mind the former Swallow Hotel in Queen St, which unwisely employed me as a barkeep in my wilder days :-o While at school, my pals used to frequent dances at both the Con and Labour clubs!
Now, is the latest Trinity Great Escape on? ;)

swittle hope the others on here don’t mind the Wakefield chat but the Holiday inn expresss and the Swallow are the same building. I turned left out of the front door for that photo of the bins.

We also went to the Cons club for a pre match drink, the difference was the Con club charged a day members fee whereas the Labour club signed us in as guests.

It would be amusing if Trinity escaped at the expense of Cas. But I can’t see it happening

M57 near Maghull; the message, a few years old now, is probably still current. Applied by enigmatic & secretive beat combo, The Pies.

Always great to see the Pies' name brandished on a gantry or span
