The power of memory...
I'm reading a book about the Jewish community in Manchester at the moment. In it there is a photo of a fur shop about 100 years ago. When I saw the name it instantly took me back to the mid fifties when I was about ten. I used to spend a lot of time with my great aunt who was mad about furs and I remember going with her a few times to Manchester to a shop with the same name. I googled it and found several adverts from the fifties for the shop, by now in a very upmarket street in Manchester. That was something I had completely forgotten about till I saw that name in the book. But it brought it all back, sitting in the shop while she talked furs with the owner, seeing the furs at home etc.
