I thought what was important was diversity not healthiness or price? And that?s why shops selling no fresh stuff and no nutrious stuff or healthy stuff at all at overinflated prices are good as long as theyre ?unique?

Loutwo Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I?d probably pop to > the kebab shop on the way home. > > Louisa. You?d have loads of places to choose from, but that?s probably not good for diversity so perhaps you should tell some of them to do something else instead? Or perhaps you should let people get on with earning a living

But there?re loads of places to buy expensive sweets which are very bad for people already? Is it unique cos it only sells expensive things that are bad for people and nothing of any real nutritional value (and is part of a hundred strong network)?

Don?t I get an answer?

Sad news. > > Louisa. but sweets are more unhealthy, more full of bad carbs, less of a meal, more overpriced (at the new shop) plus the new sweet shop is part of a (much) bigger organisation than 500 degrees and there are already many, many more places to buy sweets in the area than there are pizza, including many independent retailers but somehow you think a new sweet shop is 'lovely' and a new pizza shop is a terrible disaster for LL is it just that you like sweets more than pizza?

So more than 40 years ago you ate pizza and it was the bees knees, so you never ate it again and instead went on some anti pizza rant?

You have to remind me, what?s bad about south London businesses being successful?

Because everyone in the immediate vicinity of the rye is still ravaged and could never accept inevitable reality? You?re right on the rye i assume?

You think people linger on these terrible memories of being ?ravaged?(!) for long? Now that?s sad

On the upside thousands and thousands of people have made great memories of amazing days in London?s beautiful parks listening to music that they love with friends and family I reckon that?s a good thing (and that almost always reasonable steps are taken to consider local people, but you can?t please all the people all the time)
