Of course I have no idea what a gobstopper is, although I feel I should and once I google it I'll probably say oh right...the town of Torget not to be confused with Target, a major chain shopping store here, looks like a marvelous market place, a bit like Fisherman's Wharf for some reason too.....Yarm Street looks like a busy spot also! Very cool too see where you born too...great photos and story you shared for us Bob!21 Witshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071361755673253230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-72044768689432566762011-08-30T22:29:57.170+01:002011-08-30T22:29:57.170+01:00I’m going to be struggling too I think.

That Stavanger street looks as though it could be in York - a bit like The Shambles? I have never been to Yarm (at last you’ve caught me out!) but it looks like my kind of town; reminds me of Stockbridge or Marlborough.Little Nellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862657943846727987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-14357040897949747252011-08-30T22:01:36.367+01:002011-08-30T22:01:36.367+01:00Absolutely love the pictures Bob, especially the f...Absolutely love the pictures Bob, especially the first one.
