I remember Tesco Bidston Moss before they refurbished it, being a shelf stacker there. The file maintenance room and corridor was haunted by someone who "supposedly" died at the old steel works. I new people who wouldn't work in there alone beacuase of it. Its all part of the shop floor now though.

Theres loads of cool things I had forgotten about in this forum. Will try and think of some more. Keep em comin though!?!

More importantly, you can see the building in the background behind Asda, which iirc, is still there?

Ah those were the days, tbh I dont know why they dont build buildings with roof car parks nowdays, they make so much sense in this age where there are so many cars and yet so few spaces to park/even create parking spaces.

I remember that Asda well, especially the car park as I used to think it was absolutely fantastic and almost surreal being able to park on a roof lol. Well you do at that age hehe!

Used to go with me mum and grandad at least twice a month. I must have only been a nipper when they knocked it all down mind, anyone know what year it was, im thinking 1993 for some reason?
