I can remember all the shops shown except for Redifusion.

We shopped at Sefton Street until the shops opened in Ford Lane.

A £ for everytime I got off the bus at the stop shown - I always volunteered to take the rent to the council offices, I was given a thrippenny bit or a tanner for going, which I spent at Ashworths.

I was always trying to get a paper round at Ashworths, the paper boys had order bikes.

The Magnet became Ashworths.

There was a greengrocer called Ross on the corner of Fernhill Road and Aintree Road in Bootle. Guess it was the same firm.
