that was Mrs Barker , she had the shop at the top end of Princess St. (made great Vimto iced lollies) and we lived at the bottom end . Lots of local gossip about who had done it , but no proof . The guy who the locals suspected got picked up not too long after for a rape and got what folk thought was an unusually long sentence into the double figures, wether it was just Karma or 'collusion' between the Police and the Judge .... who knows
