Re N337

As a very young lad in the 1930s, I used to go with my dad to cut fish and chop chips for Walt Clapham who owned the fish shop then. My dad used to let me have a go with the chip chopper a practice that would be frowned on today under the health and safety and I am sure my dad would have watched me very carefully even then.

The premises that was Parmar Newsagents has now been converted back to living premises, alas a sign of the times. But the owner has made an excellent job and he deserves much credit, it is excellent.
