About ? hour ago, a truck sporting the words ?City Scrap Metal? pulled up our road. A guy walked out and calmly attempted to load a brand-new bike belonging to one of the kids playing outside onto his truck. Fortunately, my neighbour spotted him and run across demanding to know what on earth he was up to. The kids were engaged in a water fight ? a second later that bike would have vanished and we would never have known how. What a great cover: the guy claimed that he was just doing his job. When we asked him how a brand-new bike could possibly qualify as ?scrap metal?, his accent became very foreign and he was having trouble understanding us. I wish I had been cleverer (or less shocked) and noted down his car registration number. Be warned ? he may be down your road as we speak ?doing his job?.

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
