What a mixture?
Chilli burgers were far too hot for my taste buds.
Grubbs tropical was nice- peanut butter and pineapple.

Anyone know the name of a 'modern' fish & chip shop/restaurant, that was opposite St Peters Church?
They had a big thing about doing selling food in takeaway boxes, rather than wrapped in paper.. Bens?

Lastly, Virgin megastore in Western Road. spent many hours / pocket money in there, browsing the records, posters etc.
This ... getting fitted for my footy boots ... Didnt just try to sell you any old pair actually took pride in trying to sell you what suited you best regardless of price . Often recommended a cheaper pair if suited you better

I miss the one in CS. Was my first workplace in Brighton and I saw many good friends lose their jobs and their passion , people who loved music and had worked at Virgin for decades. Contrary to popular belief the staff in those stores were very passionate and knowledgable. Had 3 very good years working there.

I notice "Bench" on the corner of North St and West St has closed - did they go bust
A few years ago everyone seemed to be wearing their clobber, all I bought was a pair of shorts their once - had trouble getting them to stay up
Originally Burtons? subsequent shops maybe on short leases, I think.

I vaguely recall a large food store (Co-op?) in St James Street- split level, with a large deli counter. Was fascinated as a kid, watching the meat slicer, and big blocks of cheese being cut up.
