We sadly bid the cinema farewell and turned off the lights. Aquila had exceeded all expectations.
"Just come across your pictures of Aquila. What a shock!. I was am apprentice
at Aquila b/w 68 - 72 with about 100 others. I remember that fake Tudor bar
being built. The guy who ran the cinema Geoff Harris died a couple of years
ago in Wiltshire. He would turn in his grave oif he could see his projectors
now. I ran discos in the canteen for the apprentices. Good times. As I say
a shock to see the pictures but at least you have them as history." - Andy
