Some
loads
of
good
memories
for
you?
for me?
Yeah.
So…
any
dark
memories
from
time?
Dark
memories
from
that
particular
time?
Um…
no
I
don’t
I…
don’t
think
that
I’d
call
em
dark
memories.
I
think,
would
I
change
anything
that
happened?
Probably
not.
But…
I
was
sent
to
a
youth
offender
center
for it.
A youth
custody
it
was,
for
attending
one
of
the
parties,
which
was
when
the
whole
scene
died
down
in
Blackburn
and
everybody
was
in
desperation
because
it
was
where
you…
where
we’re ya
going
to
go
and
do
this
now?
Where
were
ya
going
to
go
and
do
what
you
were
doing
now.
And
a
lot
of
the
clubs
opened
up
and
they
tried
to
sort
of…
capitalise
on
that
and
get
people
in,
but
it
wasn’t
the
same…
it
wasn’t
what
was
happening.
And…
then
of
course
we
had
this
Brave
New
World
that
that
was
done
from
here…
and
that
was
great,
and
everybody
was
like…
yes,
brilliant.
That
was
amazing
and
then
we
had
the
Love
Decade
which
came…
but
that
was
obviously
West
Yorkshire.
And
obviously
the
police
had
started
to
do
what
they’d
done
down
in
this
area
then
anyway.
And
then
when
you’re
taking
something
like
what
you
have
here,
moving
it
into
somewhere
like
West
Yorkshire
where
they’ve
got
the
resources,
the
money,
the
police.
I
think
they
literally
turned
around
and
said…
that’s
not
happening,
not
here.
And
they’d
also
just
changed
the
laws
I
think.
They’d
said
there
was
going
to
be
laws
about…
not
only
promoting
and
running
the
parties,
but
attending
them
as
well.
I
think
they
tried
to
put
one
saying
it
was
going
to
be…
you
could
be
charged
for
attending
an
illegal
gathering.
There
was
also
a
law
brought
in
between…
in
between
the
Love
Decade
and
the
time
we
got
to
court.
Which
is
the
allowance
of
video
evidence,
when
you
don’t
know
you’re
being
filmed.
And
they
brought
that
in…
yeah…
like
two
weeks
before
the
court
case,
because
they
had
video
evidence
I
presume.
Yeah,
they
so…
they
weren’t
allowed
to
use
so
let’s
just…
So
this
is
West
Yorkshire?
So
this
will
be
a
police
force
who
dealt
with
the
miners
strike
Yes
in…
the
early-mid
80’s…
What
happened
to
you?
It…
well
it
was
a
wealthy
police
force.
They
came,
and
as
I’m
sure
you’re
aware
what
they
did.
They
decided
that
we’re
going
to
stop
that
party…
and,
and
they
did.
They
tried
to
stop
it
at
the
start,
and
they
eventually
did
manage
to
get
in
and
stop
it.
And
I
can
remember
being
out…
stood
outside
in
a
huge
huge
huge
group
of
people,
a
big
line
of
people.
Watching
people
go
into
these
big
Transit
police
vans;
and
thinking…
saying
to
my
friend…
We’re
alright…
vans full.
We’re
okay,
and
then
another
van
come
back
and
then
another…
and
then
it
became
apparent
everyone’s
getting
arrested.
Which
they
did.
And
then
they
released
me
later
the
next
day
because
they
couldn’t
confirm
who
I
was
because
they
couldn’t
get
in
touch
with
anybody.
So
I
didn’t
get
released
until
maybe
6
o’clock
the
next
day.
And
then
it
would
have
been
about
8
weeks
later.
I
was
getting
ready
to
go
to
work.
I
remember
opening
the
door…
and
then
just
getting
pushed
back
into
my
house
by
4
like
really
burly
police
officers
that
said
you’re
under
arrest
for…
I
think
it
was
an
affray
to
start
with…
I
think
the
said
you’re
under
arrest
for
affray
or
inciting
a
riot.
Took
me
over
to
Leeds
police
station,
interviewed
me
and
said
we
know
you
were
there…
and
I
said,
yeah,
I’m
not
going
to
deny
I
was
at
the
party.
And
then
they
they
said…
did
you
help
incite
a
riot?
Were
you
aggressive
towards
police?
Did
you
hit
them?
Did
you…
and
I
said
no.
I
didn’t
do
any
of
that.
And
I
remember
there
was
like
a…
almost
like
a
what d’ya
call
it
in
a
warehouse?
Where there
was like
a
drop-down
bit
where
they must
have
done
deliveries
Loading
bay…
like
a
loading
bay…
I
can
remember
them
trying
to
get
in
there,
and
I
can
remember
that
being…
that
bit
there,
us
shouting,
you
know,
you
know,
we
didn’t
want
them
to
stop
our
party,
we wanted
to
carry
on,
leave us
alone.
So
I
remember
shouting.
And
then
they
asked
me
if
I’d
thrown
wood
and
thrown
this
that
and
the
other
which
I
denied.
And
then
they
produce
some
stills
which
had
been
taken
off
a
video
camera
that
were
on
like
a
grid
reference.
And
he
said
I
put
it
to
you
that
D7′
is
you.
You
could
see
a
still
shot
of
me
with
my
hands
in
the
air.
And
then
there
was
another
still
shot
and
another
still
shot.
And
there
was
a
piece
of
wood
that
was…
looked
like
it
came
out
of
my
hand.
And
yeah,
it
went
from
there.
So
then
I
was
charged
with…
I’m
sure
it
was
an
affray,
then
charged
me
with…
and
then
when
I
got
to
court
they
said…
there
was
27
or
28
of
us
on
the
day.
The
majority
of
them
had
to
be
adjourned
for
social
inquiry
reports
or
other
things.
I
had
mine
done
because
I
was
in
trouble
at
the
time
for
other
things.
And
so
they
sentenced
me
on
that
day
for
8
weeks,
2
months
in
youth
custody.
And
then
another
person
who
I
actually
knew,
who
was
a
friend
of
mine.
He
got
sentenced
after
me
and
then
one
other
person.
And
then
a
person
came
back…
went
back
to
court
and
he
got
sentenced
and
I
actually
met
him
in
Wetherby
youth
custody
so
he
came
back
like
a
matter
of
a
couple
of
weeks
later
and
got
sentenced
for
over
charges
as
well.
And
I
met
him
in
youth
custody
in
Wetherby.
So
you
were
the
first…
I
would
have
been
the
first
person
in
the
UK
to
be
sentenced
to
any
type
of
prison
sentence…
custodial
sentence
for
attending
an
illegal
gathering.

Some
loads
of
good
memories
for
you?
for me?
Yeah.
So…
any
dark
memories
from
time?
Dark
memories
from
that
particular
time?
Um…
no
I
don’t
I…
don’t
think
that
I’d
call
em
dark
memories.
I
think,
would
I
change
anything
that
happened?
Probably
not.
But…
I
was
sent
to
a
youth
offender
center
for it.
A youth
custody
it
was,
for
attending
one
of
the
parties,
which
was
when
the
whole
scene
died
down
in
Blackburn
and
everybody
was
in
desperation
because
it
was
where
you…
where
we’re ya
going
to
go
and
do
this
now?
Where
were
ya
going
to
go
and
do
what
you
were
doing
now.
And
a
lot
of
the
clubs
opened
up
and
they
tried
to
sort
of…
capitalise
on
that
and
get
people
in,
but
it
wasn’t
the
same…
it
wasn’t
what
was
happening.
And…
then
of
course
we
had
this
Brave
New
World
that
that
was
done
from
here…
and
that
was
great,
and
everybody
was
like…
yes,
brilliant.
That
was
amazing
and
then
we
had
the
Love
Decade
which
came…
but
that
was
obviously
West
Yorkshire.
And
obviously
the
police
had
started
to
do
what
they’d
done
down
in
this
area
then
anyway.
And
then
when
you’re
taking
something
like
what
you
have
here,
moving
it
into
somewhere
like
West
Yorkshire
where
they’ve
got
the
resources,
the
money,
the
police.
I
think
they
literally
turned
around
and
said…
that’s
not
happening,
not
here.
And
they’d
also
just
changed
the
laws
I
think.
They’d
said
there
was
going
to
be
laws
about…
not
only
promoting
and
running
the
parties,
but
attending
them
as
well.
I
think
they
tried
to
put
one
saying
it
was
going
to
be…
you
could
be
charged
for
attending
an
illegal
gathering.
There
was
also
a
law
brought
in
between…
in
between
the
Love
Decade
and
the
time
we
got
to
court.
Which
is
the
allowance
of
video
evidence,
when
you
don’t
know
you’re
being
filmed.
And
they
brought
that
in…
yeah…
like
two
weeks
before
the
court
case,
because
they
had
video
evidence
I
presume.
Yeah,
they
so…
they
weren’t
allowed
to
use
so
let’s
just…
So
this
is
West
Yorkshire?
So
this
will
be
a
police
force
who
dealt
with
the
miners
strike
Yes
in…
the
early-mid
80’s…
What
happened
to
you?
It…
well
it
was
a
wealthy
police
force.
They
came,
and
as
I’m
sure
you’re
aware
what
they
did.
They
decided
that
we’re
going
to
stop
that
party…
and,
and
they
did.
They
tried
to
stop
it
at
the
start,
and
they
eventually
did
manage
to
get
in
and
stop
it.
And
I
can
remember
being
out…
stood
outside
in
a
huge
huge
huge
group
of
people,
a
big
line
of
people.
Watching
people
go
into
these
big
Transit
police
vans;
and
thinking…
saying
to
my
friend…
We’re
alright…
vans full.
We’re
okay,
and
then
another
van
come
back
and
then
another…
and
then
it
became
apparent
everyone’s
getting
arrested.
Which
they
did.
And
then
they
released
me
later
the
next
day
because
they
couldn’t
confirm
who
I
was
because
they
couldn’t
get
in
touch
with
anybody.
So
I
didn’t
get
released
until
maybe
6
o’clock
the
next
day.
And
then
it
would
have
been
about
8
weeks
later.
I
was
getting
ready
to
go
to
work.
I
remember
opening
the
door…
and
then
just
getting
pushed
back
into
my
house
by
4
like
really
burly
police
officers
that
said
you’re
under
arrest
for…
I
think
it
was
an
affray
to
start
with…
I
think
the
said
you’re
under
arrest
for
affray
or
inciting
a
riot.
Took
me
over
to
Leeds
police
station,
interviewed
me
and
said
we
know
you
were
there…
and
I
said,
yeah,
I’m
not
going
to
deny
I
was
at
the
party.
And
then
they
they
said…
did
you
help
incite
a
riot?
Were
you
aggressive
towards
police?
Did
you
hit
them?
Did
you…
and
I
said
no.
I
didn’t
do
any
of
that.
And
I
remember
there
was
like
a…
almost
like
a
what d’ya
call
it
in
a
warehouse?
Where there
was like
a
drop-down
bit
where
they must
have
done
deliveries
Loading
bay…
like
a
loading
bay…
I
can
remember
them
trying
to
get
in
there,
and
I
can
remember
that
being…
that
bit
there,
us
shouting,
you
know,
you
know,
we
didn’t
want
them
to
stop
our
party,
we wanted
to
carry
on,
leave us
alone.
So
I
remember
shouting.
And
then
they
asked
me
if
I’d
thrown
wood
and
thrown
this
that
and
the
other
which
I
denied.
And
then
they
produce
some
stills
which
had
been
taken
off
a
video
camera
that
were
on
like
a
grid
reference.
And
he
said
I
put
it
to
you
that
D7′
is
you.
You
could
see
a
still
shot
of
me
with
my
hands
in
the
air.
And
then
there
was
another
still
shot
and
another
still
shot.
And
there
was
a
piece
of
wood
that
was…
looked
like
it
came
out
of
my
hand.
And
yeah,
it
went
from
there.
So
then
I
was
charged
with…
I’m
sure
it
was
an
affray,
then
charged
me
with…
and
then
when
I
got
to
court
they
said…
there
was
27
or
28
of
us
on
the
day.
The
majority
of
them
had
to
be
adjourned
for
social
inquiry
reports
or
other
things.
I
had
mine
done
because
I
was
in
trouble
at
the
time
for
other
things.
And
so
they
sentenced
me
on
that
day
for
8
weeks,
2
months
in
youth
custody.
And
then
another
person
who
I
actually
knew,
who
was
a
friend
of
mine.
He
got
sentenced
after
me
and
then
one
other
person.
And
then
a
person
came
back…
went
back
to
court
and
he
got
sentenced
and
I
actually
met
him
in
Wetherby
youth
custody
so
he
came
back
like
a
matter
of
a
couple
of
weeks
later
and
got
sentenced
for
over
charges
as
well.
And
I
met
him
in
youth
custody
in
Wetherby.
So
you
were
the
first…
I
would
have
been
the
first
person
in
the
UK
to
be
sentenced
to
any
type
of
prison
sentence…
custodial
sentence
for
attending
an
illegal
gathering.
