Wasn't there a laddish clothes shop just along there?  I used to buy my jeans there.  I've got a feeling it was called Eric's (nowt to do with the music club)?

You could be right there on the place.  I have a hazy memory of being "upstairs" on a balcony overlooking the street with my bag after I'd bought my drainpipe jeans, and the balcony in the pictures looked like it.  But yes, I reckon it was Lime Street.  But I'm not 100% on that name.

Yeah there was a row of shops across the way from St Johns and over the subway?
