For those who live in Eltham Ryan’s picture will be familiar, and for those who don’t it will be a reminder that the “Flicks” will be returning to the High Street.
And I choose that word carefully because when our first cinema made its appearance in Eltham at the start of the last century the work flicks was a popular name for the cinema.
It was one I still used in the late 1950s and early 60s, when the ABC stood in the High Street, along with its neighbors on Well Hall Road, and Eltham Hill.
And that is it, except to thank Ryan for sending the image up.
