Flemington Inn, Burnmouth

Between 1983 and 1988, Alan lived in Lyall Terrace, Upper Burnmouth. He was a regular in the Flemington Inn and for no good reason he remembers had his old video camera with him on one occasion. The quality is a bit naff but you might recognise a few folk you remember including Johnny Poo playing darts! view the video
