Grandpa was Jimmy Robinson and for many years he had an "open all hours"shop at 95 Plumbe Street. I remember the war years there if anyone is interested, |
My mum used to tell me that there was a lot of very famous people appeared at the Palace ! Joseph Lock who i think was brilliant, was a sell out at the time. I love the theatre and would if i could ,travel back in time to have seen this?
