Yeah, making a slide down Argyle Street was a winter highlight, it seemed as steep as flip, bet it ain’t anywhere near as steep as I think it was. Used to go to the chippies in Dean Street and Moss Street at dinner time for a sixpenny mix. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
