A Memory of Mitcham.

I remember the train set that used to run around the toy shop, you used to put a penny in the slot and it would run into the back of the shop and out again. I was born in Mitcham in 1950 and lived in Glebe Court on the top floor looking out onto the post office, when I was about 6ish (long time ago).

I remember the toy shop. It was just up the road from my grandparents fruit & veg shop. My memories are from around 1970-74, there was sometimes a 'lucky dip', couldn't do that now! Remember the train set too.
