02:17Behind the City Hall and it was a big house with all different rooms in it,
02:22it was like wandering around somebody's living room
02:24so it was great and it had a bar in the middle so that's what I enjoyed about that
02:28but it was a long time ago, 1980s, it was open, 70s, that sort of thing
02:33but yeah, I'd like to see that reopened.
