Off Topic Hull most 'missed' shops...

Eh? It was in town opposite Tower.

 

Correct Bengals.....was it on the top floor?

 

Lincoln Castle on Hessle Foreshore.

 

Had a black and grey one of them in the 80s.

Few mates had the blue and red version.

 

Art Wells Bookmakers... I was chatting with Arthur in Morrissons in Brough not so long ago, still looks the same and still as mad.. top bloke!!

 

Waddingtons Leather shop on Cott Road. Got my first proper leather biker jacket from there........very Marlon Brando it was.

 

I think I remember that as The Model Shop. Reminds me there was another good model shop near central library, opposite a Wimpey I think.

 

Rendezvous (Holderness Rd)

 

Soz mate, I've been on the Malbec since 4, it'll only get worse.

 

Adidas New Yorker.

 

I can't remember how to post a photo.

Otherwise I would have.

 

We went to Sheffield skating once with some Newland High School lasses in about 1976. One bird was georgeous and I tried every trick in the book but failed. Went to a house earlier this year to do a job and she opened the front door. Still lovely even 40 years later.

 

Yeah I had the blue and grey one in the 80s. Loved that jacket.

 

I'm not surprised - Ice skating is deadly!

 

Go on.....

The cinema near Longhill was the Berkely in Greenwich Ave, Bilton Grange opened Nov. 1956. I was there opening day with schoolmate both aged 9, the film was Bus Stop with Marliyn Monroe,but they would not let us in because it was an A classification(needed adult supervision).

 

Was that Steven? Betty Hyde was my uncle's sister and I was in the same year as Steven at Riley. They used to live in one of the streets that backed onto Rileys playing fields.
