Naw, naw.... Just a pre-emptive stike in case someone posts the photos from Treptower Park.

From memory, I seem to remember reading that they came in around 1965 (just checked, whoever wrote the wiki page seems to think the same thing).

Just checked on Google streetview, and the sign is there and looks remarkably similar (even down to the foliage on the wall at the side) - so this may be a modern photo with an vintage filter/action on it. It's St Mary's Road in Melrose.

That photo looks kind of old itself VT, btw.

Indeed - faked up in Lightroom. One of the pre-set filters: "aged photo"

I'm sure the other side said Korean takeaway.

You're such a Daily Mail cliché merchant.

If you look closely you can see it's been hand painted or has been touched up afterwards, (insert carry on joke here).

A place to go to moan about how much bloody hard work it all is, or something:

The doorway at the grinding centre was also the entrance to a B&B called the berekley. All the acts who where playing the kings theatre in the 60 and 70's used it as digs. the fella who owned it had a huge collection of pictures and autographs of the stars that stayed there. Unfortunatly he passed away about 1993 and the B&B closed.

I don't know what happened to the collection.
