What Do You Miss?
Foxy, I spoke to someone in the station this afternoon. He confirmed what you said about Patty's chip shop, the seating area was through the back. People who thought John Wales' fish was better would get their fish up there and their chips at Patty's and vice versa. They would go to one shop and send the kids to the other. Patty's shop caught fire, they were stll using the old coal fired burners for the fryers.

My apologies to Mrs Jeeves Foxy. Just as I posted this I remembered the chippy. It wasn't very big and was very narrow, those being served took up most of the room, if you queued inside you had to stand with your back right up against the wall. It is funny how things come to mind when you stop thinking about them. There may have been some seating upstairs, that, I can't remember. Incidently the green car is parked outside Barclays Bank.

I see you are still using the TARDIS Foxy. Going by the clothes those kids are wearing, what seems to be a MK11 Cortina estate and a Morris 1000, that colour pic was taken in the 70's. Matty Robinsons hardware shop is also still there. I can remember the electrical repair shop, the guy used to fix hoovers,washers and spin dryers etc. (no tumble dryers then) . Certainly during the early '70's, Barclays bank was there (part time) as was the dole office (prior to bridge house at the top end). For the life of me I cannot remember a fish and chip shop between Walter Wilsons and Barrons the chemist. I know just the man to ask and I will try and ask him over the weekend.

If your polishing the seat for me, it must be a hard seat. I like soft seats.

Malcolm, That would actually be funny if it wasn't so close to the truth.

Well, this is hard , trying not to be disrespectful to your lovely wife ( suck grovel etc) Foxy, but that may have been before my time (read that bit really quickly). Barons chemist is now Boots. WW is now Premier. I cant remember a chip shop there at all. I can remember the bank and the dole office. The thing is I am only 55years of age , oooooooooooops.

And still it goes on, when will people learn that the signs are there for a reason. These latest bufoons are British with a nice posh Mercedes estate car which they thought could somehow drive through the North Sea more than an hour after the safe crossing time. I have absolutely no sympathy at all for them.
