City Bakeries

( Original photo from the "Mitchell Collection.)
Is this the place Liz? Loved your story. I seem to remember taking my young sister in the pram up to Quarrybrae Street to my Aunt and Uncle's. Our parents must have trusted us back then.
Told Mum and Dad about your story and the City Bakeries.

Apparently that was were we met Grace's parents. I was in my pram and smiled and laughed at them, must have been wind, and they stopped to chat. Keep the old stories coming please.
