Hi Leonard,
It is a great lot of memories you have brought back to me in this picture of Theo’s Greek Cafe , Hunter Street Newcastle, as I am the second waitress on the right front, behind the counter,I enjoyed my time working there, as it was very popular and it kept us very busy, I would love to buy a signed copy of this book, and read all about the history in Australia.
