Title: A little story about Pink Floyd
Post by: Scroobius on November 28, 2016, 08:31:26 pm

Or at least one member of .................

Back in the eighties a new squash member joined our local club. He played a bit and wanted to improve. At that time my playing mate and doubles partner was available during the day so took him "under his wing" to give him some coaching and encouragement. And so they had a coaching session once a week. After a couple of months my mate was walking out of the club car park when a Ferrari appeared, the driver stopped and waved him over the road with a big grin on his face.

Next coaching session my mate said he was impressed with the car and asked him what he did for a living. "I play in a band" came the answer. So my mate asked which band to which the reply (yes you guessed) was Pink Floyd. My mate looked blank and said "oh that's nice" basically because he had not heard of Pink Floyd before.

"What?  not heard of Pink Floyd" I hear you say and sadly yes because my mate lead a very sheltered life - in fact I think he was probably brought up on the dark side of the moon.

But anyway it did happen Nick Mason was a member of our squash club.
