To be fair Lumbs ice creams were decent but we were poor in our house!

Yep, that's him. Absolute diamond, and still going strong.
Those were the days when you could go to the grocer, the baker and the butcher, and cross the road to buy your newspaper. Everyone knew who you were.
Great times.

I used to go down on a weekend with me dad, to the shop down Barnsley Road and get a big tub of Rum and Raisin, which seemed very fancy back in the 80's and a big tub of a flavour called Dairy, absolutely gorgeous ice cream.

If you'd have showed up in our gang with a rum and raisin cornet, you'd have had your head kicked in, no question.

Seems they’re not planning on taking up the vacated Sainsbury’s store on Ings Road but setting up camp a few hundred metres up the road. Massive store by the looks of it. With this and the one earmarked for Cas they really are aggressively targeting the area.

Just for the record i know from an very good source, Tesco were never going into the old sainsburys store on ings road as sainsburys hold the lease on the building. Watch the press for news on the Sainsburys ings road site you may be surprised

I'd heard that Matalan (& i forget who) were going into the Sainsbury's building & that Tesco were then building a big store where Matalan ,old MFI etc . are.
Then a mate , who's wife works for Sainsbury's , told me this morning that Sainsbury's had realized what a balls up they'd made by going to Trinity Walk & were going to go back into Ings Road again !

I remember cutting a coupon out of the Wakey express and taking it Tandy, on the Springs, the week it opened for a massive free torch.
Never replaced the batteries. Never went in Tandy again.
