Friday Knights
Was a Friday (oddly enough) evening club where we would go towards the latter years of middle school and early secondary.

It was run by the local Methodists and was quite fun in terms of the football and other games. Of course there was the ‘God’ bit, which no one paid a blind bit of attention to, despite their valiant efforts. We also got homeopathic watered-down orange cordial and a couple of Rich Tea biscuits all for two quid.

Looking back I’m pretty sure one of the ‘helpers’ was in fact a groomer. If you asked someone to draw a paedophile, you’d end up with a Police e-fit of the bloke.

I went to one of these,
but spent much of my time playing Fighting Fantasy books, which has probably doomed my soul.
ours was called Covenanters, and there was a summer camp, too.

Fighting Fantasy?
Now you're talking. I remember buying Dead of Night on a trip to Bath. Then scaring myself shitless on the car journey home in the pitch black. I was eight years old though.

I remember never completing a single one,
and spending way too much time copying out the game sheets.

I wasn't that
Dedicated. I used to just skip around the pages and hastily turn back if I died...
