Saturday Mornings At The Cinema

[inquisition]

My wife and I were remeniscing about cowboys at the ABC minors little boys and girls cinema club (6d) now 3p.
We talked about the Lone Ranger & Tonto, Cisco Kid and Pancho(?), Hopalong Cassidy and Gabby Hayes, the Range Rider and the all American boy....? Roy Rogers and Trigger, but who was that guy in a wheel-chair who turned a cape around himself , wore his guns back to front and road a black stallion. Any ideas?

You're giving your ages away now.

But 6d is now 2.5p, not 3p.

[inquisition]

No that doesn't ring a bell weecalf.

So at my age I must be allowed some errors Hymie!

About what year a you talking about. I went to the 'pictures' every Sat morning from about 1956 and I don't remember it.

Yes, I went to the ABC minors at Rodney Street Edinburgh. I LOVED it and I'm still word perfect on the ABC minors song. Sad eh? Don't recall anyone in a wheelchair though.

Zorro? He wasn't in a chair though. He just liked slashing a Z on everything.
