Mr R Dick's Antique Emporium

Walking along St Stephen Street with Lindsay today and noticed, for the first time in many years, a light bulb on in a favourite old curio shop. Too many years ago, my friends and I used to trawl the second hand shops and markets on Cockburn St. and
St Stephen St. of a Saturday and this was a special haunt. The shop's opening hours were always unpredictable but for the last 15 years or so it has been closed with the dust collecting ever more thickly on the junk treasures in the window. The owner's Grandson (pictured) told us that she (Mrs R Dick) has finally decided to 'retire'(94) and let the family take over.
It looks exactly as it did all those years ago.
Need to go for a pint of Snake bite now.
