Re: Henry Street
The best of the lot was the shop at the corner of Barnes Street/Henry Street - The Junk Shop! Anybody remember ? It was run by a right pair of weirdo's - Frank & Fingerdot - and the place was just stuffed full of cheap Japanese tat. The shop window was lined with toy tin motor cars...as ten year olds, using magnets, we would wreck the display at least once a week. One time we did it three times in one day. Lovely.
I recall she ended up being fished out of the canal at Church and he remarried about 2 weeks later.....and two weeks after that, he too was dead . A funny old world.
