That brought some memories back for me too.
I used to walk past this papershop on my way to PeelPark school......used to linger there to look at the goodies in the window..especially at Christmas time.
I once saved my bus fares and bought my Mum a gold coloured brooch for Christmas......it was nine shilling and sixpence.
She put it on her best coat...her going to mass coat.
