Very atmospheric you could do your weeks shopping, spend time talking to people you know, a proper social hub as they like to say in today’s parlance, problem is it would all change thanks to the lack of foresight.

Nah not a hundred, not yet, but feel it sometimes! But I do rember the High street before the supermarkets and the big nationals came. I rember my mother on a Saturday morning not being able to walk the length of the High Street without stopping to talk to at least a dozen other women all doing the same…..getting the weekly shop, and trotting off down the market to get a bargain. Getting some sweets from Spoges sweet shop was the highlight then back home on the bus for dinner

Good days good memories!
