  I used to work in the shop next door when it was a magazine stall around 1972...think it became the Electric shop a few years later....I moved around the corner to W. Robinsons Book Shop for around 7 years.....would be nice to see some of the old staff there like Billy, Mr Moore, Mr Rennie & Audrey (She was the grand Daughter of Stan Laurel ) plus a few more who's names iv forgot through time...I know Jimmy Forsythe took a few...
