I didn’t know about the Worm’s Head venture but remember he tried to can and sell laver bread.
Glad others remember The Drangway. |
Think the Worms head venture didn’t really get going for him
But yeah Drangway fantastic. Colin did our wedding meal for us in the basement room. Sewin or steak as I recall, can still remember the blissful look on his beaming face as he described in detail how wonderful each would be :) |  | | |

Heck no. Owned by the Rabaiotti family I believe. Italian family who did great steaks. Nothing frivolous but really nice food. |
Their beef stroganoff was my favourite thing when I was a kid and we went there as a (very) special treat every so often as they were family friends. |  | | |

A few times I have been told someone is dead, then seen them walking down the street a while later. Which is good of course. | |

I was going to post that Ray is still alive and well (he's 3 years younger than me), and that his dad Ray senior died late 2009.
To complicate it even more, Ray (John) Tilley Jnr's son Ray (James) Tilley runs Tilleys the pawn brokers. |  |

Steak au poivre or trout with delicious chips were my favourites.
I have it in my mind that they lived over in Porthcawl. Did I imagine that? |  |

They originally were in the Apollo club in Porthcawl and also had the Apollo restaurant in St Helens road. If my memory serves me right Pietro opened the pizza house, Guido Franco and Alvaro opened La Boussola and Steffano and Evo opened the Apollo in Craddock street. |  | | |

That’s a fantastic bit of info, thanks.

Up until recently I had a load of chairs from The Regency Rooms which my father bought off them for his hotel. I could have sold them back if I’d known😄 | |
