Dun working   10 #1 Posted December 16, 2014 Distant vague memory of a man who would throw a complete dinner service into the air and catch it without breaking anything , i think there was a crockery shop nearby where he would sell his plates etc, possibly the Hillfoot bridge area, anyone remember this from the 1960s.

hillsbro   32 #2 Posted December 16, 2014 This sounds like "Potty" Edwards. There's an old thread about him - click here - in which post #4 by jomarch includes: "He was famous for his entertaining sales pitch, when he would 'throw' pots around without dropping them". Post #24 by fleetwood mentions a "warehouse/shop around the Hillfoot area". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
