mick2me 3,033 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Can you remember 'Ation Corner'? Radford Blvd/Ilkeston Road Junction. Named because of the four establishments on each corner. Public House 'Damnation' Church 'Salvation' Friends School 'Education' <_< And the Butchers on the other corner, I can't remember the 'ation' for that unless it was owned by a Mr.Singh?

Tutanic 8 Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 Nothing to do with meat or travel, when it all started the butchers shop was a pawn shop owned by a Jewish person and it made the third 'ation, Ruination. When this establishment moved he went into the pot shop mentioned in another posting. This was Simmons pot shop on the corner of the Boulevard and Denman Street. Somewhere in this area was Linneys paper shop too. A crazy crazy NB I have consulted the oracle on this... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
