Good ole Woolworths :) miss it so much, I have wonderful memories of going upstairs to 'The record' dept,( in this town) as a teenager, and asking to listen to the new top 10's that had just came out, which I heard from the radio, radio Luxembourg or Top of the Pops. Lots of us used to go, we were SO cool then :cool: :happy:

Paper Roses by Marie Osmond bought in Woolworths along with 2 ounces of Pick and Mix.

I took my new single to a Brownie disco in a draughty old Scout hut and someone stole it. Tragedy :arghh:

To add to this I bought 'the Motown story' whilst on holiday in Berlin at an American px.
It would be worth a lot of money in its original box set.
Went missing with most of mine and the wife's record collection when we moved house.
Movers said didn't see it!!

Yeah!!
Bar stewards!!!!!!!
