It's a free country, adopt whatever PC stance you want. Just don't tell me which stance I should take just because it clashes with your opinion.

I was talking with an "old local" recently and we tried to remember the names of as many of the old CSP shops that we could, including:

Taylor & Lane - Butchers
Robertsons - Butchers (Derek ?)
Harry Flowers - Grocers
Lippiatts - Greengrocers
Darvills (then Paddy's) - Barbers
Mr Milly - Cycles/Repairs
Co-Op - Grocers (Giles Tripp, Mr Allnutt)
Stowells (then Threshers) - Manager: Bob Clements (also the organist at St Joseph's Church)
Ice Cream Parlour
John Benn - Newsagents
Dennis - Watch Repairer
Willoughby's - Shoe Shop
Tellings - Ironmongers (Victor Telling)
George Newman - Bakers
Reddings - Woolshop
Guests - Tobacconists
Claydons - Greengrocers (when it was owned by Dick Claydon)
Andersons - First self-service supermarket in CSP
Botts - Fishmongers (Manager: Eric Stone)
Beesons - Ironmongers (Lower Road)
Andrews - Menswear (when it was in Lower Road)
Picture House - Cinema (Mr Westcott)
Sweets - Chemist
Colins - Fish 'n' Chips (Mr Pigden, taken over by his son)
