I remember them well, used to garage their wagon right next to St Marys School on Moscow Mill Street, near to Bill Dashes house, It used to stink to high heaven in the Summer

Flynn's Fishmongers was owned by my life-long friend's father, Bill Wilcock. His son Tom, who worked with him, died just a couple of months ago aged 76.

Remember Tom very well West Ender, used to pop in Ossy Con for a couple of halves of Mild on a regular basis, used to chat with him most times he was in, was sad to hear of his death
