  can't see that happening brian, dave has expanded his business and seems to be doing well.
  
  i remember when he was in the smaller shop, only 2 customers could squeeze in at a time.

  i was referring to the space between the counter and the door, if a customer tried to enter when another was inside it was a very tight sqeeze.

  We repair mobile phones and tablets. We have moved from cannon st too a bigger shop opposite costa/HSBC.
  
  We have been going for nearly 6 years now.
  
  If you need any help with your phone or tablet just pop in for a chat. We fixed Colette's blackberry a month or two ago.

  One of the best if not the best spot in Dover in the 1950s I would stand outside selling newspapers. There was 3 of us,there was old Harry. And Reg who had a old bike he ended up marring a very Rich lady and myself, Saturday was the big day with all the football on the back page then the half-time results would be added on and then the full-time results.I got about 2 bob in todays money that is 10pence per day so at the end of the week I got around ten bob (50p) sometimes more but not much, or less.
