It was Sunderland empire last time we didn’t get SB but a bottle was £23 I’m sure the prices were more as we were in the stalls.

I am always in awe of the set changes what a cool job PLB

I also love a good NZ SB as we’re off to Oz next year I’m trying lots of Australian SB too found some amazing ones in Waitrose.

On GDPR I am thinking if someone wanted to share an amazon wishlist.... which would maybe help with ideas giving Santa the chance to see things you like then we could maybe send the link to the elves to pass on? Obviously using the list is at Santa's discretion and noting that we're not suggesting Santa buy's you the Fenix 6 for your victim if it is on there ;)

BBL, yes I doubt if recognise Bury St Eds now. The Curry's store was right in the centre, and there used to be a reasonable sized market just on that square once or twice a week.

This thread is taking a bit of a reminiscent turn 😊

The market (Wednesdays and Saturdays) is still there but the Cattle Market (which did still auction cows, pigs and sheep up until about the 1990s I think) is now a shopping centre (a huge controversy at the time I think it's fair to say the good people of Bury don't like change!!!) There used to be a Debenhams in the town centre which was in two separate buildings so you had to cross over some scruffy little backstreet to get into the rest of the shop - that obviously closed quite some time ago but they took the flagship store in the Cattle Market Shopping Centre (which is not called Cattle Market officially but is known as that!)

When I lived in Bury I used to tell all my family/friends who I might be buying a present for that if it couldn't be found on Bury St Edmunds Market then they weren't getting it!

Aww, I'm going to have to find a race over that way one day so I can come a walk down memory lane 😉
