Tommy Fisher ran a pub in Barnsley before moving to the Dolphin, possibly The Three Cranes.
You sound very much like a chap who would have been a follower of The Dreaded Kalahari Bushmen, BLM. Who can ever forget those nights with Heppy and the boys in the Flanshaw Hotel, Balne Lane club on a Monday and the Wakefield Arms. Good days eh?

| Great memories of Frank Hepworth and the Kalahari Bushmen, I seem to remember Frank having a nightclub just off the Bullring later in life.

Opposite Woolworths would be the Dog & Gunn. Dolphin was round the corner at the bottom of Warrengate. Changed name to Wakefield Pride later but not sure what its called these days or if it's even there any more?

Heppy also had a small fish and chip shop/cafe next door to the Dolphin at the bottom of Warrengate, I used to get some chips and mushy peas from Heppys and jump straight on the Flansher Flyer bus at the stop outside his shop. Great days!!
The Kingfisher f&c shop/cafe at Calder Grove was also Heppy's back in the sixties.
You had to be early at the Balne Lane Club on a Monday night when the Bushmen were appearing. It used to get absolutely packed. Who can forget the heart rending performance of the old Jewish weepie "My Mother's Eyes" when sung by Tony Costello. There wasn't a dry eye in the club.
