My father was a self-employed contractor who basically sold his technical draughtsman services to petrochem companies to help design their new oil rig or somesuch. IIRC his 'company' consisting of himself and his 'secretary' my mother was enough to get in one of these bulk business places, I think it was called Macro. I was very young...I remember the toilets were only accessible from outside the gate so when I whinged about needing the loo once we were inside my exasperated mum had to take me all the way out and back in again. I remember it being like Ikea's warehouse floor, only without the meatballs...and the only thing I remember buying was a huge crate of juice cartons for my school lunches

Hmmm I used to work at Eastland... You didn't happen to come into a now former camera shop every now and then did you?

I can only think of 2 photo related places in that nightmare of a place, Rabbit photo down near woolies, and Teds. And I haven't been as far in Eastland as to Teds in ages, so no idea if they're even still there.

Closed last August, just wondering as the company contracted a locksmith company, and one of the smiths was a local... Not you then?

Unforunately, no. Probably Statewide LS, from next to the train station. They could literally just walk across with their tools.

But I was in there a few times in the couple of years before they closed to get some gear for my camera bag. So, if you were working at Teds, you possibly could have seen me wandering around anyway.
