This one brings back some unhappy memories for me. My clap doctors, the British Dispensary, are just a couple of doors down from the Copa Nightclub on the left and I visited them regularly. You can just make out the snake logo on the store. They later produced St Luke's talcum powder with the same logo and then developed the British Nursing Home - all with seed capital financed by my extremely bad taste in women. The Holden in the foreground looks suspiciously like one of the company vehicles we had at the time.
