Re: Who remembers?
I remember the chippy well, amongst us kids the fare was refered to as "Ada's greasy chips". I have no idea if the proprietor was called Ada or not!
I also remember buying some sort of soup, veg I think it was, from a machine at the top of the steps on the way out. Not to mention the unmistakeable chlorine aroma on the way in!
The attendant once caught me diving in from the top step of the podium style board and surfacing right by the hand rail in the deep end. The sod made me swim my first length just to prove I could swim. I nearly drowned in the effort but I did it !!!
