    Remember When You Could

    I think the plastic bottles refund idea is brilliant but we don't have that. All our corner shops are off licenses, they sell beer, wine, whisky and all manner of alcohol as well as sweets, bread, milk and all manner of food and household cleaning products.

    Yes! Up until the 80s we had a shop van come round. The closest now is we have a veg man that comes round every Tuesday, we've had him for over 30 years now. My Aunts milkman was a god send all through the pandemic because he delivered her milk, bread, eggs and butter but he retired last year...
