going back to the days when you could get a 'smart' suit from Burtons opposite the Market Hall for £7 paid off at 8/- a week   |
I've got a feeling that it was called the Happy Garden and was replaced sometime in the late 70's by the Standard Tandoori - a great place to eat but sadly closed for 97 minor health and hygene issues.
