I remember Bebbingtons very well.That was where my great aunt used to take me to buy me clay marbles.They weren't as heavy as glass marbles but they were a lot cheaper and there weren't many glass ones about .It was also where I got took to see Father Christmas every year.He was at the back of the store ,sat with a big bran tub,filled with presents wrapped in blue or pink paper.They used brass canisters on a pulley system above their heads that they used to put the money in and it would go shooting off to the cash office and then come back with your change in it.Simple but happy days.
