Nice memories Sue. I grew up in Westwood Street. I am 3 years younger than you, but was also at Whalley Road Congregational Youth Club when I heard about JFK. My sister Jean went to the High School, but she is a couple of years older than you. Everitts also had a shop at the bottom of Malt Street before they moved to the old Thornbers shop. You didn't mention Matt Taylor's shop (great iced lollies) before they moved to the opposite corner of Westwood St and Eccles Street, later became SPAR I think.
