We elite from Rayleigh Sweyne were already on the bus when it got to the Broadway just no room for the other passengers. Always got a cup of tea in the Arcade Cafe.

RE: RE: Broadway Approach

I used to have my hair cut in the arcade as a child and always remember the barbers pole outside, which intrigued me.
I also remember when I was very young my father buying a Christmas tree in the green grocers and taking it home in his old Rover 8 with the top open and the top of the tree sticking out.
In my teens I used to but a portion of chips at the chip shop for 6d!
