1989: Bin day in Swansea

No I didn’t work there but I used to go there often for work I was involved in. ️

Oh ok, did you know the BP manager, Howard.

I'd almost forgotten that all the council vehicles were painted in that horrible beige colour.

Probably by sight but the name doesn’t ring a bell.

Mate. Google is wrong. I don’t know when it closed but it wasn’t 1978 and it was definitely open sometime after 1989.

It was the late 90's definitely.

Yes. Grok give a better answer. It says it shut prior to The Orange House pub being opened in 2000.

You could just take the word of all the people here who used to see it weekly through the nineties J123.

The funny thing is, I most probably did see it myself weekly, but certain moments from 80s and 90s are vague.

It’s a good thing, we can all sort have a chat and corroborate the findings, it’s painful how sometimes ai can get it drastically wrong.

Imagine the scenario in the year 3026 ‘ hi there google, when did Tesco close on the Kingsway’ ? It could say 1955, nobody would know no difference.
