Can't remember the guys name but the house is still there it was called,and still is Derby House it stood opposite the then Working Mens Club.A chap named Jack Hitt from Lime Avenue Langley Mill had a more or less manopoly for Langley Mill. He would collect the papers and split them up into 3 sections
and myself and 2 others would do the delivery
and collect the cash meeting at Jacks to get Paid.This would be around the 1945/50s, i always took my change to Joe Pyes shop and exchanged it for notes spending any tips i got on sweets.Paper shops did not open to sell Sunday Newspapers in those days
