CHAIRBOY Â Â 11 #3 Posted May 23, 2006 Yes, I remember the shop very well. It was an excellent family business who cared about their customers. I can picture, well, the pleasant lady's face who worked in the shop but I never knew her name. The shop was a bit like my house, short of space with items placed on top of things. Someone requested a 'sports shop' this week on another thread. I would have sent him to Archers, yesterday, had they still been there!
