Remember going into Ironmongers to buy wires rabbit or fox, purse nets or a box of cartridges, used to love the smell of the cardboard 12 bore cartridges. Even the smell of the store it self.

We still have a fairly good Ironmongers where you can just one screws, bolt or catch but it don't smell the same. None of the above any more.

Those indeed were the days. 

Cheers Arry

Catty elastic 10p a foot from a great big roll, and leather boot tongues for pouch,s at 2p a go, used to just go in there to look at the fishing rod you would eventually save all your milk round money to buy hanging on the wall, no more of that nonsense mate when you can have it thrown over you fence by a div in a van wrapped in half a rain forest worth of paper ?

It was Aladdin’s cave to a snotty lad from  Southmead mate, but strange how that little shop gave an interest in the outdoors that has lasted a lifetime ??

You're on about my old mate Peter. He was from Shap.

Used to sell the army surplus gear at the shows, was a pal of Typp Ratcher.

Cheers.
