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.

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.

      I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
