I've forgotten the name of the manageress, who lived on Thorneyholme Rd, but do remember that the young assistant, a few years older than me, was Eunice Kerr, now a gorgeous 70-odd granny. A girl of my acquaintance, Pat Lightfoot, also of Thorneyholme Rd, sister to Ray, worked in the shop part-time.

I recall Rod Hill of Warriors fame took over the record shop on Abbey Street and turned it into a Carnaby St style clothing shop. Mog can you confirm ?
