They say they can't 'carry on forever'
The long-time owners of an Ilkeston fish and chip shop say that they can't go on forever and that someone now needs to bring the much-loved institution into the "right century." John and Flora Christofi, 74 and 70 respectively, recently announced that they were retiring after 36 years of running Johnny's Fish Bar in Ilkeston.
But now, John and Flora have decided to shut up shop and hand over their treasured business to new owners, who they would like to introduce new features and bring Johnny's up to date, such as introducing a website and delivery services, which John and Flora never quite got to grips with. The couple, surrounded by cards, flowers, and chocolates from well-wishers, added that they have made many friends over the years, and people who have worked at Johnny's rapidly become part of the family. They say that much of their time will be spent in their allotment behind their house during their well-earned retirement.
