When I was in sem the girls were astounded that there were no takeaways, having grown up there I didn't understand what the issue was!!

I was in old Gateshead sem the year Danskys opened up. Omg the excitement in the town that you now had 2 stores - couldn't understand what all the hype was about.

I remember Mrs Rose selling shnitzels and hot dogs from her house.

And that brilliant stationary shop, Snips, that sold everything dirt cheap.

Good old Mrs Rose! I sometimes filled as a cook in Sunderland Yeshiva for her, was epic LOL. Snips moved and renamed snips plus but it's closed now. If u remember Snips u must remember Sloans where we stood in line while the shop keeper would bag each item....

Nah, only remember steinhaus, Danskys, snips, Barclays bank on the corner, Mrs Rose and the dressmaker opposite snips - again, very cheap.

I didn't live in Gateshead, only there for sem.

Glad to hear the place has moved on a bit.

Yea even old Gateshead's changing.
When I was in Sem that was b4 rabbi katz openend new gateshead and there where hardly any yidden living down coatsworth rd.
There was no ravenscourt... and no Dansky's
Mankoffs was there at their house. Only stenhouse.
I guess I'm a bit on the older side
