Once upon a time almost everywhere there was a bus station and a shopping precinct.
Built in the Sixties from concrete and optimism.
Once upon a time almost everywhere there wasn’t a bus station and a shopping precinct.
Partially demolished, partially rebuilt, replaced by a new kind of optimism.
Peopled with a new kind of people.
Where will the old type of people go?
Over a number of years I visited the site and recorded its sad demise, heartlessly tinned-up, unloved, windswept and almost devoid of hope.
No more tea and toast in Tony’s Café.
No more nothing.
No more.
Tony’s cafe where he did breakfasts, fish and chips and other things in there i loved going in as well as the other café what was in the bus station, good times they were

Remember back in 1977… knee high to a grasshopper… waiting for a bus to Nana’s with me Mun.(Dividy Road).
Saw an awesome tall punk rocker… tall too was the ginger dyed mohawk. Wish I had a camera to capture & share image. A memory that I will always remember… oh yes and that smell of the always popular café.
