In the mists of my youth there used to be a sweet shop next to the Jolly Farmer (where Delta security is now I think) staffed by an old lady or two. Sweets were in jars on shelfs but I can't remember much else about it!
I used to be with it. But then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems scary and weird.

I noticed some people mentioning the shop next to the Jolly farmer, I think it was called gold hill store, it was run by two women, or were they, my sister used to call them "men Woman', one had a ton of brylcream in her hair. They were the only shop open on a sunday in CSP, although Nagles was open in GX.

They broke all the Sunday trading laws and charged extra for everything, the store was next to the shop and was damp damp damp!

One of them was called Phyllis!

Anyone remember?
