Is it either Tunstall Market,

Is it either Tunstall Market, or the old CO-OP

In fact the old COOP holds so many vivid memories for me, being dragged around it as a little boy by my mom.

When you first came in was it fruit and veg, and if I remember right wasn't there a little hut where you could get pooles/scratch cards.

I can't see why this can't be

I can't see why this can't be a where in entry. It won't be a where in Tunstall, but I'm guessing a Where in Stoke-on-Trent.

Oh yeah, this reminds me.

Please, please please check out the official Where in Stoke website. It's ran on twitter and on the website so you can play anyway.

You can find where in stoke here, and you will also find the link over to the right of the page.

How about mam, would that

How about mam, would that please your northern senseabilities?

Besides when you look at the differences between our generation and yours there weren't those many American influences apart from the old black and white cow boy and war films

, whilst for my Generation about 1/4 of TV content is American, whilst kids TV would be even higher.

You can hardly blame us for picking some stuff up.
