The Caxton Club was the social club for the Frome printers Butler's and Tanners. It was run by my Dad. He started it. Before it was a grubby canteen but it was transformed to a bar and Pool table and it had live shows there occasionally. We used to go there from time to time as the drinks were cheap and it was pleasant. Had a juke box and fruit machines. We never played there. The Bad Detectives did I think. We (Bad Detectives) practiced there I believe. We had some publicity photos done there. Photographer was a printer of course. No printers there now. A housing estate apparently.
