Good evening,

Slight mistake in my last, it was TOMS DEN, paper shop and sweeties and all things we loved as children. Forgot to leave the space.

Was he from ri?   ;D ;D ;D ;D

Have been going back through all this and I'm not sure my contact has got the shop name correct. He's an ex Beaconsfield Buildings tenant but looking again it definitely looks like an 'R' before the 'DEN'.

And we havn't found the name and dob of the boy with the broom yet

It looks like a mawl hammer to me, a type of rubber hammer used for leveling paving stones and driving in fencing stakes etc...wonder where he is going with that?
