I realise that. My car is old and has loads of mould in on the seats (as one of the windows doesn't close properly). My wife is 8 months pregnant and I'd like to try and make sure it was safe for our baby before the baby arrives as I'll need to drive them home from hospital. I would do it myself but I was hoping it could be done better with someone who knows what they were doing and has proper equipment. There are builders and cleaners allowed in people's houses so thought it might be allowed (obviously i'd expect/hope it was given an airing for a while before and after anyone started cleaning).

I was just about to message you, ant12!


I had an extra-clean of my slightly grubby Golf as I was due a grandaughter who may need transportation [!] and they did a

fantastic job, including steam-cleaning the seats. That was a bit of a one-off but you can then have basic washes after that.

Better than what ?!

I?d say net zero change for me as it was a low-impact experience.

Thanks for asking though !


Guess what, there?s a pandemic, it?s killed a lot of people (possibly 400,000 by Xmas), unnecessary journeys are ill-advised. Some people don?t get the message even after being reminded already. When you remind them again, you don?t get some kind of thrill (I don?t. Perhaps you would - else why would think someone else would ?), it?s just sensible advice.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
