Or Corona.
Hey we had Corona on the milk float and there was a deposit to be claimed on the bottles, I'll have you know!! 😂

We used to return the bottles and claim the deposit back with one of us hiding down behind the float taking the bottles back off again before the milkman even noticed. Quite a slick operation for teenagers 😂

Where was/is it? I've never heard of the place.

It was In the Old Wimpy / The Bap Shop behind Sports Direct

La La Juice does sound like an unpleasant euphemism?

Yes, I would take "Freshly pressed juices" with a pinch of salt.

Not seen grapefruit juice for a while, in most places tbh.
No problems showing if you want either of these.... Althoght I can't find basic style grapefruit juice...

There was an empty unit on Salter Street, I think it used to have a florist / home wares shop in but I couldn't say for certain.

There was a florist (Co-op) next to the estate agent, between it and two hair shops (his and hers)...

The florist had been John Wood's, and the ladies hair place had been Halpin.

The gents' barber had been "Cooks", but that went five or six years back.

Anyone know where Stafford Borough Council is moving their reception too? Went in there today to try and get some forms and they were all packing up boxes, and the reception area was empty with signs up saying it had closed and directed you to online ?
