My brother, Tim, was a paper boy at Kagans newsagents in mid 1960's. I was 7 or 8 at the time. I helped my brother do his round one day just for the fun of it. When we got back to Kagans news agent my brother picked up his pay. Mr Kagan, not wanting to leave me out, got my brother to buy me a bar of chocolate for helping him. If I remember correctly it was a Mars bar.
The shop in the foreground is Kagans Newsagents & Tobbaconist; I did a paper round for them in the 50's for 7/6 pence a week. The Obelisk can be seen in the background.
