Tony would be standing behind the counter and the unsuspecting customer would select a bar of chocolate or a bag of crisps. When the customer went to pay for it Tony would ask “Has that passed the bottle test?” “What’s that” said the customer – at this point Tony would grab a bottle of soft drink and smash the article to pieces!!!

The look on the punters face was absolutely brilliant, everyone in the shop (the Misfits) would fall about in hysterics, and Tony would then congratulate the punter for not buying the sub-standard item and offer another in its place!

I bought a Panther 650 (Sloper) from Tony in the 70′s, and still live (in the now ‘sterile’ Lots Road Triangle – as Estate Agents like to call it!)

Hi Tony, hope you’re well…x

You can always rely on the Aussies to embarass without being prompted.
Looking forward to more tales.

I used to stop by for my cigarette papers back in the early 1980s.
Lovely evocation Mr Airfix and it was great design work too.
The shop gets a brief mention in my book JImi Hendrix London.
