Time moves pretty fast. Speaking of those days, I'm probably the last 20th century kid who still remember everything, before 21st century.

You remember the Beer Garden/Red Lantern at Clifford Pier? Packed with 'Crocodiles' and Thaigers every night in the 80s.

Lots of sailors came ashore there and wasn't comfortable to use the overhead bridge after 9pm.

It was macham at the seaside. Now beside it is the mega container terminal

You mean the wholesale veg market. They used to be at Upper Circular Road until the mid 80s.
