Or you could have just let soup dragon stay?

Even if there were problems, better than an empty shop and scrubbing around for temporary tenants, no?

Hi StraferJack,

Thankyou for the constructive post. Maybe before you posted you should have asked for the facts and we would have been more than happy to fill you in on the situation. There have been a few stories circulating along with the notice placed in the window of soup dragon which do not tell the full or true story. We are not 'scrubbing' around for temporary tennants. Number 106 will be up and running as a new business in the spring of next year with tennants already secured. Instead of leaving the unit empty over the Xmas period we thought we would let a business,preferably a local one,have the chance to use it during a busy period in a location which is prime and without a long and massive level of commitment. This is the reason we have posted on the forum,we realise its a great window for local people and businesses to grasp the chance. Thanyou for the post though, we will take what you said onboard.

"Preferably" a local business?

Glad to hear it. I'm hopeful the new long term tenant will be a local business too

[Keyholder106]

It totally will,I assure you.

[StraferJack]

Genuinely good to hear. Cheers for the heads up

So it's not true then that Soup Dragon wanted to stay but couldnt because the rent was increased beyond what they could pay? That is what the staff in Soup Dragon said had happened and has happened to some other businesses along L lane.

Spring comes. Summer arrives. A business in situ wants to stay, but gets a measly few weeks extension to June

What happened to this secure tenant and why not give the current tenants a longer run?

Are the rumours of the arrival of PAUL unfounded? They are a baker/cafe small chain for those who are not familiar. A few people have mentioned this name to me now and I am yet to go into one. I checked the planning application online and it will apparently be changing from A1 retail to A3 restaurant?
