Re: does enyone remember
Yes run by Larry Everitt and his wife Sue. I used to take my mums shopping list down to him and he would deliver the groceries in a cardboard box the same day. A forerunner of Tesco online.

When we lived on Ramsbottom Street we used to get deliveries from that Everitt's shop on the corner of Knowlmere St and Whalley Rd.
