:rolleyes:QUOTE=Liz Smith;289715]I came from Garston like Brian but was born and brought up "under the bridge". I can remember two cake shops in Window Lane, Hales who sold scrummy custard slices and a small cake and pie shop I can't remember the name. they did their baking in the shop - I can still smell the pies which were to die for! they also sold iced squares -they were sponge cake covered icing mmmmm. I worked in an opticians at the top of Bold Street and there was a Cousins shop at the very top on the corner. I got my wedding cake from there in 1973 it cost me £7.50! I can remember going into Cousins at lunch time for filled baps that they make while you were waiting - cheese and onion mmmmm![/QUOTE]
