Would it have included a cuppa in Esquires, a look in JJB Sports and picking out a CD in Music Zone.
Would you have selected a DVD from Woolworths or browsed through the toys in Toymaster. How about a snack at BBs or fish and chips from Mariners?
Take a look through our 13 photos – of former shops and some still with us – and see how many of these scenes bring back memories of a great day out.
