Does anyone remember the "Golden Chair" weighing scales in the old rag & tag market?
I used to love going in there on a Saturday morning and looking at all the animals.....dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, chickens....all sorts.
I wonder what happened to the chair??
Yes I remember.
My sister and I were weighed regually on them. one old penny!
My aunt used to weigh my cousins too and then would compare weights. I used to hate it. I thought everyone was llooking at me.
I Remember the rag and tag maket tho, always a source of entertainment , especially the Edward brothers clashing their crockery and calling out to everyone that passed.
