Aneto's still saying 'under offer' on rightmove

But whilst searching I noted G (Peckham Rye) is up for sale too.

I think she's relocating to the old Lush Designs shop over the road.

That?s good news if it happens. The space was a little large for what?s needed, so hope this right sizing better aligns on affordability and business success

What an awful replacement. A fancy, expensive, health food shop is no replacement for a decent curry house. there is one of these in Balham i seem to recall and the prices are extortionate.

Might be a bit early to start worrying about Lordship Lane's curry house situation.

:)) :)) :))

Surma was better than many of the others, though :(

Pity it was Surma which closed.

I'm not at all worried about the curry house situation. I am concerned what the impact As Nature Intended will have on Health Matters, just opposite.

Indeed.

As pointed out elsewhere on the forum.

Also on Gather, who have only just opened after a lot of hard work :(

Having just been to the As Nature Intended in Spitalfields yesterday, I am less concerned about Gather. As Nature Intended was eye wateringly expensive; Gather is very reasonable, and with a good wide range, and you can buy as little or as much as you need. Lovely staff too.
