The shop at the end of Forster Road leading to Tillotson had a big window I think it was a Wool Shop then a Shop,my brother went through the side window after jumping on my back & I fell back & he ran back to our house screaming I am dying,it was a nasty gash though,that stopped him jumping on my back.But I always got the blame say aaaah!.

I remember a second hand shop at the top of Richards Road,it was only as big as a house window, and always looked scruffy.

yes i also remember that secondhand shop went there many times if you sold him owt he would hardly give you owt for it but would sell it for a big price in fact i think the same building is still there even now but not as a shop .

We used to live next door to Mabel and Tom, my mum found out after a while that Tom had put a peep hole in the shop somewhere so he could spy on my mum when she was hanging washing out. Cos they wore mini skirts in them days, Mabel found out and went bonkers at him :hihi:. I dont really remember tyhem as i was only little.
