Speaking about this yesterday and I was surprised to hear the wee shop at the bottom of Fisher Row and Shore Street was a tea room 30 years or so ago.

Geechy's family ran it...

And also Angus Kilpatrick had it as a small electrical shop repairing hoovers, washing machines and the likes.

The pet shop era was the McMillan girls!!!!!!!!!
