I can recall a bakers in Greig Street, on the way to the High School, where we would buy "yesterdays stale-ics". The joy if it was a cream cookie! - this must have been the fore-runner to the reduced counter in Tesco nowadays. I also remember buying broken biscuits from the boxes in Woolworths, similar to pick and mix today, but never to eat in the "one and nines" in the Playhouse when we juped school on a Wednesday afternoon (split classes so we were never missed - ever!?) How we got off with not being there every Wednesday afternoon in 4th year I will never know, but - and if there wasnt a decent film on, then we went for a walk, anything but going to class. And I still got decent employment so it wasnt wasted afternoons after all.
