Waitrose opening in Honor Oak Park? WTF....

[V511]

The local councillor Alex Feakes, just today posted that Pizza Express had an appeal turned down regarding them using the Old Bank site http://goo.gl/4ZYz5

So it is a site of interest, but not sure where the Waitrose talk is coming from...other than the usual ED Waitrose fetishism ;-)

EDIT: I clearly can't read - it's Dominoes Pizza, not Pizza Express.

You know if you really have the time then you can actually visit the forum on the Waitrose website and ask them about their plans to open new stores in particular areas. If you scroll down then you can see the Waitrose Sales and Support team responding to peoples suggestions. Does anyone remember that programme 'worst jobs in histroy?'. Its got to be up there

Was talking to a bloke on the 176 today and he'd heard that they were turning the Weatherspoons in Forest Hill into a Harrods Food Hall Metro. Things really looking up down the road here now...

There's a Pizza Express in Dulwich Village and one in Herne Hill too, not exactly a trek?

Actually it would be kind of cool to see some of our more aspirational ED brethren/sistren combust in a green haze of envy! I vote for waitrose in Honor Oak Park!

[maxxi]

This still? Really? Is there anyone in ED who could honestly say they would buy this kind of stuff? HOP can have it.
