zakes Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 When I was approaching my teenhood in 1966 I used to go into the chemist shop on that shopping parade at Birley Moor Road, Frecheville not for Aspirin, Ribena, Lucozade or Noddy's but to climb the stairs to that fantastic toy shop upstairs. Airfix models, dinky toys, puzzles, potty-putty and loads of other toys, it was an eye opening experience for me. I always bought something, went downstairs then bought a barley sugar twist stick......oh yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
