Walk along Stevenson Sreet (back past the Rockfield Centre) towards Geogle Street and look for a shop with blue awning on the right.
Forwards or backwards, left or right. This is the place where you might. No matter how you look at the name this type of word reads the same. Can you see what is known as a palindrome?
