Wrexham lager released in Australia
- Thread starter ozzy red
- Start date
Yes a great chippy , park outside swift service and great fish and chips. Run by two ladies if I recall ?
Wrexham Lager did not use an ace of clubs logo in the 70/80s. We also didn't use shillings and pence then unless you are talking about the 1870/80s ?
.Wasn't Snelsons chippy on Ruabon Rd, I think it's called Eddie's or something now.....The one on Poyser St was called Heaps chip shop...
Ahh, it's all starting to come back. I don't remember Heaps and Snelson's was on Pen y Bryn.

Having racked what's left of my memory capacity, I think you are right on that and I stand corrected in agreeing earlier that it was Snelson's. I remember the big 'HEAPS' sign over the shop frontage ... I think!
Yes you are right , Snelsons was on Pen y Bryn and I meet the son of the origional owner now and again .
You must have had a good job. I think I was on about £36 a month working for Denbighshire County Library.

That was the pay for a time served fitter, us apprentices were on about £4
I finished my apprenticeship in 1967 ish? So went on to the holy grail of £20 a week. About a year or so later went to Brymbo on £36 a week. Then a few years later saw an ad in the sun, heavy duty diesel mechanic, Saudi Arabia £160 a week tax free but a year straight in the desert! So I did my Tebbit bit and went. Never looked back and did Saudi, Algeria, Angola, Egypt. Had a ball, worked my nuts off, got shot at, learned to speak several languages. Nearly died from cerebral malaria! The old fashioned quaintly named black water fever. Avid readers of the early Wilbur Smith books will recognise the illness.
