My parents probably dated there, as that was the nearest nightlife to Harold Wood at the time.
Don't think I want to advertise it too widely, though

Joe have you seen the tiny print under 'where my story begins'?
It says 'if you don't count the many years my family spent sifting through rubbish tips in Bangladesh'.

Every time I drive past the block of flats that replaced the Ilford Palais, I get a bit emotional. Some right sluts I met there.

All I know is I haven't been there for a night out for a Kong time crying shame the night spits no longer exist. We all know why Of course but no point starting that! TM thought you were referring to another place so Angel pub or Shannon didn't like palais myself as there was always a punch up!

If you aren't in by 9-30 you had no chance of admission
Or was it the rat and Parrott ?
It ended up as a Lloyds no 1 and then it became a black club and then the guns turned up

that's the one. the bird who took it over when it first became a Lloyds ran my local wetherspoons in goodmayes. she left in the end as it was out control most weeks with cunts fighting and smashing up the place. when it was the club when I went there I don't think I ever saw a fight

the wetherspoons she ran in goodmayes was the standard bearer. that was a decent boozer despite a couple of mobs of fuckwits that tried to cause agg. they eventually got sorted out though

Grew up there.
Loved the shannon, palais, barons, papermakers.
Even the old angel, and the General Havelock, Lord Napier, Prince of Wales Cauliflower and Joker,
Papermakers, Red Cow and the other boozer down ley st had many visits from me and mine.
Still a great place but not the same

Who remembers the boxing, on a Sunday afternoon at Kings in Seven kings. Shame they shut it down. Good times!
