Do you remember the stall in the Sheaf Market ...


Recommended Posts

...What about the stall that sold old books and comics?

There were a few in there as I recall. There was one directly in front of you as you walked in the entrance from the Park Square roundabout bridge (opposite the sweet shop :) ), then there was another sort of in the middle of the market, and another near the exit which brought you out to where Woolworths was. Can't remember which one sold the comics though.

 

I also used to buy loads of second-hand books from the Monday outdoor market.

I used both of them, and I bought books from that Monday outdoor stall! Think of it, we could have been an elbows width away, me looking through science fiction books, you buying soft porn, not even realising that one day in the future we would meet on a comp.

 

I`m going to be beaten up for that, arent I?

Gee the broken biscuit stall brought back memories. Mum used to buy them and Dad would say "I'm not eating them they're sweepings up!" We kids used to scoff em though. I don't know if it was called the Sheaf Market - the one I mean was the big Black stone building- Mum used to buy Dad's pieces of leather from there too because Dad 'cobbled shoes' to make a few extra bob.

remember the cafe up the stairs in the sheaf market?

Was that the one with the tables with umbrellas, or was that in the Castle Market?
