Duggleby's toy shops,used to look in the windows but we could never afford what was on display.

For the Drewery bakers gang I'm sure you must have also taken a visit to Len's and spent more time chatting to him and his sidekick Eric than actually having your hair cut

bit like Hudge!

We flitted from Scarborough St to Argyle St 1960ish amd I can remember getting hot buttered breadcakes on the way to school from Milners bakery on Kimberley St. Seemed like every street had a bakers in them days.

I'm not that old, but always liked a good walk around pools corner

Drewerys hot cakes - truly gorgeous. And as a kid, always went to Len's for a haircut.

My dad used to take me to Bill Bentley's barber shop opposite the Gordon Street entrance. I hated it, he used to nip the back of my neck.
Does anybody remember Les Cheeseman's greengrocers and Maltby's at the top of Brighton Street. Always bought my rabbit food there.
