I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

The bookies was Dane Bros and the pub was the Friend In Need with the landlady being Rene Maxted.
Alas I have no pictures. I did have but my brother "lost" them.

Well, I know it's going off topic, but as it's reached 28 pages perhaps Howard ought to start a new one. "When I were a lad" and lived at 4 and 5 Peter Street, at the top on the right was Keith Dunford's fruit and veg shop (now a chemist) and next to that was Doyle's toy shop. Going left was Grilli's Ice Cream Parlour.
More pills please nurse!

I remember them all well, Terry, thanks for putting names to them.
Sometimes this forum is more like a memory room in a dementia care home, great

There is a re-creation of Doyle's toy shop at the Transport Museum which re-opens at Easter.
Thought for the day - How about a wrinklies corner so us old codgers don't go off down memory lane in other threads?
