Quoted from chelseacity
Anyone remember Samuels Bazaar on the high Street where all the pubs are, when we went in he (Mr Samuel i presume) followed us around like a hawk watching  it's  prey, so we went to Wilson's Bazaar instead which was much more relaxed shopping, though i was only 9/10 at the time, or Woolies which is now the new Wetherspoons.


Used to love all those shops. Didn't Woolies used to be in what is now Weatherspoons (old theatre)? Glass topped cases full of Timpo cowboys and indians. Ace!  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,

You couldn't go in Samuels bazaar with out being followed, either it was Mr Samuel or some old woman with strange shaped glasses on.

Craske & Smith's was also good for sporting items, I bought my first laced up leather football and tennis racket from there. That ball was bl00dy heavy once it got wet ha ha.
Most dart players in the town bought their darts from there. They sold school and scout uniforms as well. Upstairs they had a big range of air guns and rifles.

Yes my mam worked in that Woolies and I always remember going to the Bazaar to buy caps for my cowboy gun and the rocket you would throw has high as you could and hope it came down straight so that it would make a bang.

I remember being dragged into Lawsons by my Mum as a kid and being intoxicated by the smell of coffee. Any floor.

Did you put her right and point out he's actually a super-hero?

Teamed up with Doc Tower ('the Million Brick Man') to defeat their arch-nemesis, the evil Scrob, whose amazing sweater could absorb all manner of punishment (mostly rum).

By day a mild-mannered shopkeeper in brown overall coat dispensing gumboots and workwear, by night he can be seen running running like the wind down Pasture Street, his arms reaching out inexorably before him to catch ....

.....last orders at Hewitts.
