I never took much notice of the clothes shops names. I know Harold Ian was later on the next block along towards the big house. See how long it takes the rest to come up with it. I'm sure you've mentioned getting your Ben Shermans from there in the past.
I was never out of Harold Ian Ged, never...
on my £8.28 I got as chain lad on the Mount Pleasant car park I done well..
A lad named Frank who I knew worked there..
that might have something to do with me being dead smart going out them days...!
The shop I mention was the 1st place you could buy Bennies in the town..
some might say different...I'm talking about the real American style Bennies.
boss unusal cheque styles.. not the plain gingham you can get today..
and it was the 1st shop to sell American style 'Boxies"

Blacklers basement..?...I loved that place..
just like a giant 50p shop...rubbish... only dearer..
