I was surprised to hear the home of the Imperials has closed. Started playing there in about 1988. The place was heaving. Played our last game there 2010.
After a brief visit to Wandle road Rileys for 4-5 years we came back to our spiritual home. What a dump it was too. Badly run, ( it was always running out of drinks) and only had 2 tables. Didn't have to put up with that too long because the great Hannah took over and turned the place into what it became. Hannah *left*. Imperials fell apart. Now no more Suzy's. Coincidence?????
