Well designed old building in Palace Avenue. I remember it being a Christian bookshop. Now the new accepted values of our culture, promoted as an ideology by the national lottery, etc, that it is good and desirable to become extremely wealthy by no personal effort except the buying of a ticket, are reflected at the street level by Totesport.
