Thanks for your comment,I remember the Fish Shop very well.
When we were boys we used to get 2 penneth of chips from there (2 pennies in old money)
I am now in contact with Eric Woods who now lives in Lincolnshire and we have visited each other a few times.
Eric goes to Brightlingsea quite often as his sister and family live there,but the last time I visited was about 1975
Once again thanks for getting in touch

Terry
