They did. I rented Jean-Luc Godard's "Week End" from there once. That's been out of circulation for years. I'm really sad to see it go, they had a really good back catalogue.

Indeed, although I've been curious as to why that stays empty for so long. The video shop's only what 50 yards away from I guess - I just looked at google streetview and the shop next to the video shop's empty - what's in there now as I can't remember?


There's a whole thread on what ED needs on here and that's a decent sized shop with I'm sure a decent size rent - it'll be interesting to see how the real world fills this one, as well as the stationers and the one next to the Co-op.


My vote is for a car dealer, plenty of pavement there eh? ;-)

I respectfully disagree about Our Price JCTG.

Know the price of everything and the value of nothing seems to be their mission statement/philosophy/paraphrased Irish writer quote.

They should really emblazon it across their LP carrier bags.

But they probably won't, what with them being breadheads and everything.


All in all, a Wimpy Bar would be the best local facility.

Seriously, I could murder a Chocolate Bowler right now.

No BookHopper, you're not. What's the opposite of serious? That's what you're being.


You're a bit of an ol' mischief is what you are.


Press for a Wimpy Bar though and I can guarantee to throw considerable support behind you.

An offer, I assure you comes with a Chocolate Bowler should the good people of the Wimpy family achieve their Lordship Lane ambitions.

Glad you agree about the Wimpy BH, it would be a fine addition to the locality.

Of course I know NOTHING about your good self and I meant nothing more than a mildish nudge-in-the-ribs jest.

No offence.

      Taxes

      I think it's a good idea and follows the example of other towns/areas. As it says in the article, the area around the main tourist attractions in Southwark, that is The Globe, Southwark Cathedral, Tate Modern and the whole walking route from London Bridge to Blackfriars, takes a lot of maintaining and it shouldn't be a burden on regular council tax payers like us.
