Yes, they were giving away vouchers in Lordship Lane to spend in the store. I think they were a fiver.


When we went in, there was somebody - apparently from head office - telling customers what wonderful new things there were to buy.


We couldn't see anything that looked either new or wonderful, so we used our vouchers and left 🤣

" staff are all on a well deserved holiday for a

considering they all seemed completely happy about it, I would say so :-)"


I hope they are all still getting paid...Used to shop at that co-op and more often do little shops at the Forest Hill rd shop. As I became less mobile and had to use both crutches I always found the staff very helpful and happy to ho the extra mile e.g.at The Lordhop lane shop someone wd take my trolley around the corner and pack it into car boot. Hope ths means that they are happy in thier work as treated well.

I'm completely unsurprised that your biggest takeaway from the new fit out of the shop is there's a wet floor sign. I imagine you were only saying you couldn't wait to for the Co-op to reopen just so you can whinge about it.


The new fit out is very nice. Much more spacious at the front of the shop. The rearrangement of the floor seems to have given them more shelf space as there's products there I haven't seen before.


Good effort overall and nice work done by those who carried out the refitting.

Aren?t you whinging about him whinging....? Oh the irony of it all!

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.   
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
