At nearly 80 years of age, and after nearly forty years of serving the residents and people of Aycliffe and surrounding areas with batteries, straps, watches etc, the watch man, Mr Bond, has decided to unwind and devote more time to his hobby of classic cars.
As customers will be aware after the demise of the outdoor market Mr Bond moved into the Thames Centre and traded every Tuesday.
He would like to thank and wish all the best to the many friends he has made over the years, Mr Bond will end his weekly stalls at the end of April.
