Leslie browns toy shop was great I used to go there as a kid. Loved it and used to stand for hours on the space invaders game in there. Great memory’s

Thornaby Remembrance Parade 2018. Derek Brittain met his school pal Allan Huitson again. Two Westbury Street School lads.
I had difficulty recognising which part of the High Street this was taken from until I spotted the Trader Jacks banner… It’s behind the Greggs Van… Then everything else brought memories back… I hadn’t realised it had changed so much in a comparatively short time. It could even be me going over the crossing!!
Sadly after the rot set in, all the character long since gone.
