For all I know it could have been called Mimmo's and we've been calling in Nimmo's for years! Yep, remember the chandlers and the fruit and veg shop, seem to remember them selling a few other bits too but don't recall their names. Just about remember the launderette and the little Tesco plus Openshaw's of course. Never realised Joyce L worked in the telly shop! Never ever remember the swimming baths on the Rec being open, or the Atlas cinema ever being open so I guess they closed in the 60's maybe.

Don't recognise a few of those names but some I did do know. I was more in the era of Darren Kirby so a lot of my fond memories are from when I was really small before the shops started to close down and stuff. Think a few people who've been there since the 50's or whatever are still around but a lot have also moved away etc. What was the idle house?
