Title

Patrons relaxing along Franklyn Avenue

Description

"In thing: The "House party" and the "Dance" have for some time now been joined by the "Session" as a popular form of entertainment. Drinking sports which usually are not able to accommodate large crowds of patrons utilise the sidewalk and surrounding conveniences to "do a thing". The sound boxes are usually placed on the sidewalk and swingers buy their drink from the bar and dance wherever they wish within earshot of the music. Above picture shows patrons relaxing along Franklyn Avenue as the Afrique Pub put on a "Thank You" session recently."
