Well done Malky!
 On the same subject, can you remember the name of the one in the passage between the Mander and Wulfun Centres? It was near where Sainsburys had their store in the 70s.

Well, I have never been in Wolverhampton, I live in the North East of Scotland, but a quick search only shows "Domino Crafts" in Cleveland Passage.
"Beacon Gallery" is on Victoria Street.

Malky.

Neither of those ring a bell with me Malky. I think you're right with the location of one being in  Cleveland Passage but I'm sure it had another name at some stage. Have to get the little grey cells working again! Thanks anyway!

Brilliant Jool! Well done. ;D

I remember going in for supplies for my art projects from school. I used to love the place! (Just couldn't think of the name.  ??? )
