I remember my mum sending me to the shop to buy her Fags.
Would have been when I were between 7 and 10.
Shop was run by an old lady & appeared to be in her living room of a 2 up, 2 down terrace.

One of the many smaller shops in our town.

The grey houses next door used to be a fish and chip shop with a café, it closed a couple of years ago.

We had a small sweet shop near our school the lady behind the counter would sell you a single fag and a match, imagine doing that these days.
 
Scrumping, knock down ginger (knocking on doors running off) penny for the guy.Long gone, could just see the kind of trouble they would cause in this sad day and age.

Ha ha, I put a modern twist on Knock Down Ginger. My home automation has the ability to learn 433mhz signals so I was able to clone next doors wireless doorbell. Every now and then when Im bored or if they annoy me I’ll press it and watch them come out looking up and down the road 😂

I can’t remember how old I was at the time, but I can remember that it was budget day and my Mum sent me to the shop with 10p to buy her 10 No6 cigarettes but it was 4.55pm so I had to run as they were going up to 10 1/12p at 5.00pm!
