SIR - I keep reading all the letters from people praising Busby's.

I worked there in the Sixties on the switchboard. I loved working there; it was such a lovely store, very posh. I could never afford to buy anything, as I didn't make enough money.

I used to watch all the people going across the street to the Theatre Royal.

My Dad always took me to Busby's as a child to see Father Christmas, and I loved that grotto. It was there, or to Brown Muffs - another great store.

Those were the days, the memories are endless.
