Woolworths has never smelt right since it nearly burnt down in the '60s....

Wasn't that before it was Woolworths.

 

Bryant and Macstraws (or something similar) springs to mind.

[kaizen]

No, it was still Woolies, my cousin worked there at the time

[American FLEET FAN No1]

Bryant and Rackstraws was destroyed by fire, in 1957, torn down, and replaced by Woolworths. Woolworths then had a fire(sometime during the 60's) that started in the Staff Restroom,located at the rear of the store, but only caused minimal damage.

Are you mad? That's far too much like cheerleaders, another American excrescence on the game. Heavens no!

I always said you were a mine of trivial information, Les, even if you do now reside over the pond !

 

P'raps it should have been Bryant & Mays ????

I lived in Berkley Road then, and remember running along King Street with a couple of buddies to see the fire!

One of my students was Shane Warne's 8th last girlfriend.
She met him in England!
We tell the young ones never to go there!

Mick, Miranda Kerrs are ten-a-penny down at the Fleet. You literally can't move for supermodels on matchday. Why would we need another?
