This photograph shows Dickens Hypermarket on Portrack. It was possibly taken in the late eighties?
I was a Saturday boy at Dickens in the mid 1970′s. There were a few of us from Grangefield Grammar School (David Truby, Paul Johnson, Colin Morgan I can remember). We were fed fish and chips at lunchtime and paid about £2 per day. I worked in the timber yard, cutting timber and loading customers cars (hopefully for a tip!)
