No date. Would this be from the 1970's?

Chris Henderson Julie Parkinson
Glenn Johnston yes early 70s i think

Brent David
And chips...

Carrol Hunter
1970 it got $ 90 a fortnight working a 8 hr day with 1 weekend penalty rates included .It was just as expensive to eat out when you were paying a mortgage with 17% interest in those days .

Janet Corn
Would you like chips with that......

I remember going there in the 60's, the Tudor?

Mary Moffitt
After decimal currency, anyway.

My late husband John Everitt and I owned it for about 3 years in the mid 1980’s, also I had the Sheepskin Shop across the road beside Ron Messenger’s menswear shop.
