…Whilst we,re in the Simms Road area, does anyone remember the bookies that was situated about half way along the row of terraced houses/cottages that has the football pitch behind that row?…I had my first ever bet in there. I was aged about 14…An over 18 put it on for me and I listened at the door via the tannoy that was the only way to hear the race. Unfortunately it won!…I,d caught the bug!…Had it lost I would probably have sacked that and saved a fortune over the years. I even remember the name of the horse. ‘Araba’ it won 7/2…Does anyone know who owned the bookies?…I don’t!
