Happy Days

A Memory of Normanton.

I remember being taken into youngs shop as a small child where they sold more than drapery. Upstairs there were rolls of lino and the whole shop smelled of it. Downstairs I was fascinated by the cash cups that ran up tubes to the cashier and came back on overhead wires with change for the customer. No till in this shop in the days of the 1940's.
Grandmother lived opposite the grammar school and during visits i was taken for walks through the churchyard and on to the park to feed the ducks.
