Nah, that was Maddens the delicatessen and provisioers. They did various fancy foodstuffs and had a wine license too. Used to cater for some of the ships that called in. Latterly had a sister shop out in Wilton.

Maddens TV rentals were on Parliament Bridge. Think there’s a barbers there now

On the ball Soundy.

Maddens also had a shop on Princess Street, I reckon that Barbers are doing more business there than when Maddens sold TV's etc.

Remember that Pye sign for ages, what year would you give it, at a guess 78.

Drucker normally chips in here with an +/- 6 months analysis of the different vehicles.

I think my mother used to get a bottle of "fine wine" in Madden's on Patrick Street for the Christmas dinner. We thought we were the dog's bollox with our bottle of Blue Nun. The height of sophistication.

I remember renting a TV from them for about 7 quid a month so I could watch Euro 96.

I rented a video from Maddens and you used get 3 free videos a week. Cost fuck all. Was Watching Con Air, Alien Resurrection, Sphere, movies like that.

Don't remember The Lansdowne but I remember The Cuban House very fondly. I'm guessing it took it's name from being a cigar emporium at one stage but when we were in Christians that was the local cake shop. I tasted my first ever custard slice in there and it was the start of a life-long love. None of yer cream sh*te either. Proper custard - the clue is in the name like!
