I used to have a few Sheath Knifes.. can you imagine kids playing 'Split The Kipper' now... you'd have an armed response unit pointing a gun at your heads. ha!

I spent many many happy hours with one of them. I might not recall this shop Nancy... but you've set off many memories for me with it.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-42486726733887927882011-01-24T19:27:43.400+00:002011-01-24T19:27:43.400+00:00That's interesting - so is the Discount store ...That's interesting - so is the Discount store (ex TSB) the building in the right of the old pic?<br /><br />(and the tall chimneys those on the Queens?)Isla...https://www.blogger.com/profile/09569097700652272494noreply@blogger.com
