When I was very small, Me and my parents used to live on Marlborough Court flats, on the manor.

Now I'm led to believe this was where the netto store now lives.

We lived there during the 1980's.
Does anyone have any photo's of what the place looked like. I have vague memories and want to know if its the place I think about.

Apparently I used to have Hells angels as babysitters. Probably explains why I turned out this way :clap:

I do not remember any flats where Netto is but just across the way from Netto there were some flats. They were above the shops on the ramp and they stretched around to the pizza shop is now.
