Yes i did but it was Saturday morning pictures for children

We would go ,if mum could afford it, to one of the local Granada cinemas It started at 9 till 1130 am and always had a serial film as the last one played and it left you wanting to se the next episode .was a ploy I think to get you back the next week

The Lone Ranger was one of the films they would play , along with Roy Rogers films and Tarzan who at that time was Johnny Weissmuller

On your birthday you would get a card through the post with a free ticket valid for a month .

So i was a Greenwich Granadier :-D :-D

I was an ABC minor. Saturday morning pictures at the local flea pit. :-D :-D :-D :-D. Worse still as a teenager the midnight movies. Supposed to be horror films I would usually sit crying with laughter or sympathising with the poor monsters :-D :-D :-D :-D
