This is what the road looks like at the moment in Queen st North Bundy it's just outside Henery & Aileens shop that they had in the 90's.

Interesting story about Henry & Aileen having a shop in Bundie. Always believed they haled from Mossman?
In the 90's you state, does this mean they moved there after selling the BarraKing business to Ron Dau after 1986?
They obviously moved back to Mossman, because that's where Cranky and Tony visited for the Bio.
Would like to know the story behind the shop, maybe Barry if he sees this.
Regards, Seaweed.

Henry & Aileen managed a shop for Aileens sister Fay and her husband Tom , They had a shop around the corner from the photo , I worked for Amalgamated pest control and I used to treat the 2 shops in the 90's . This is how I got to know Henry and he told me he made Barra King Lures they went back up north after a couple of years and I haven't talked to them in years.
