I saw the Globetrotters at Wembley Empire pool in the mid 70's
I think I saw them in the 60's, could have been 70's
Bloody fun, Curly was Magic too.

I had a schoolteacher called Mrs Lemon.
But she wasn't black, and to the best of my knowledge she didn't play basketball.

I remember going to see that Briano.
Remember hearing Lemon constantly shouting out "aright aright aright".
Always thought the cartoon Globetrotters were better players though!

Was hoping we might have got him in next month as cover for Carroll, even in his 80s would have given us more mobility
