Re: Cliff Walmesley's
Stylists, Kate, not swingers...and I could tell you about places where there are blokes even older than me wearing this sort of clobber!

Re: Cliff Walmesley's
Sure the denim stall, then later shirts, ties etc. in the inside market was run by Cliff Walmsley.

Re: Cliff Walmesley's
No, Julie. McNoes, was on Blackburn Rd, Next to the arches, I got my suits made there, by Duncan's father Ernie. He was up to date in the 60s with all the mod requirments, eg, 22" centre vents, side vents, 1/2" turn ups, all the latest fabrics, mohair, tweeds, anything, you wanted, an unasumming little shop, but a great tailor and a nice man to go with it. I think there might have been a sports shop next door called Gibsons and a Chinese restaurant, on the other side. Am I right ?.

Re: Cliff Walmesley's
Well I tried to take a photo, and in fact I did take a photo with my little pocket camera but when I tried to upload it to the PC the flippin memory card was corrupted.
 I shall have another go tomorrow if I don't forget.

Re: Cliff Walmesley's
Don't forget the ticket pocket and six-button cuffs, Al...essential requirements before you went to the go go (or maybe just Accy Disco or Burnley Mecca in our case).
Willow, thanks for trying to take a pic of the old Cliff Walmsley's shop. Hope you have more luck next time.

Re: Cliff Walmesley's
Of course Wynonie and I used to have a silk hanky in the top pocket, to match the suit. I look in the mirror nowadays and say who the bloody hell are you. People who know me now cant believe what I was like then, compared to now. Talk about age shall not weary them nor the years condem.
