  30 quid for a piano, i am guessing that must be over a thousand in today's money.

  Mr Worsfold Mowll.....Looks rather like:
  
  Mr Roger Walken.....
  
  and before you start...that is a compliment....
  
  Thank you Cath...re York Street....I am interested, because the main
  Roman settlement was situated there....we bowed to the Motor Car and rushing everything in and out of Dover....I feel that must have been an important street, before it was flattened...
  
  Thank you.....

  fascinating stuff as always, the thing that caught my eye was the "cash" ironmongers.
  
  there were no electronic cards or h.p. then.
  
  what other method of purchase was available apart from cash?
