Patricia Sheridan… Remember this shop used to get sweets and cigarettes from there
Mark Rodrigues…I used to go in there regularly too and would spend time speaking to him and a teacher who used to teach me at St Richards, Mrs Price. Doesn’t reflect what the building looked like, though I wanted to tip my hat to,it as I imagined it was this shop with him as the man in the paper shop in my song, which I later did drawings for…
Bernard Morphew… I worked for the Evening Argus in 1969-72 and went into Huffey’s sometimes twice a day
