Robertsons Cafe
This brings back memories of 1953-55. The large building in the foreground was Robertsons Cafe and both my parents worked there in the summertime, I also helped out by peeling potatoes in a shed at the back, I was 12. Next to the cafe was a children's theatre, does anybody remember Uncle Ken? Then Uncle Jack did a season (maybe it was Jack Douglas). The building behind it is the Palladium Amusements, run by Curly - my dad worked there at nights and in the school holidays I ran a kiddies' ride on the forecourt. I met Mario Fabrizi there one year and we got quite friendly until he went to London to do a show with Alfred Marks. Happy days.
