I worked at the sister garage on Cleveland Street in the early 80s - good times and good employers too - Richy and Dave.

I didn't know Johnny well being on the other site but he was a great character and very helpful to me when I was learning..When did he go..?

BTW they (BVH) have now also acquired the spare land next to it so will take up the whole block between Cathcart and Watson Street soon.....
