Everyone talks about the ‘good old days’ when times were simpler. Take a look at this picture from yesteryear and see if you can spot places, people and scenes you recognise.
Alice’s Texaco
As you can tell from the car in the picture, this is an oldie but a goodie, posted by John Doak to the ‘Old Cayman’ Facebook page. Alice’s Texaco was situated in the heart of George Town off Shedden Road. It later became Jose’s.
Across the road was the Home Supplies store (you can see it in the image), and every Christmas, there would be an animatronic Santa in the shop window – a rare sight back in those days.
The parking lot for Anderson Square now sits in the location of Alice’s.
