Yes, Retlaw.......I used to push a pramful of coal bricks from Bob Wilkies on Nuttall Street up Riley's Hill......the coal man would deliver up there, but wanted a minimum number of bags to be bought.......and if Ma couldn't afford the minimum number of bags I would trundle down to Bobs for the coal bricks.

I'm not as young as I feel.
