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!

    • The NYT ( that right wing alarmist rag) has reported that Iran told Qatar so they could prepare. Iran and Q are on good terms so Q won’t retaliate, esp as Iran is only targeting US bases, which everyone knew to expect.    
    • If the Qatari's decide to retaliate then it's all going off...but I suspect the Iranians are hoping for this - one inaccurate missile and the Qatari's may have to. I think the Iranian leadership is working on fast-tracking their own demise and the Americans and Israeli's planning for regime change, maybe with the many political prisoners the Israelis tried to free from the Elvin prison today. What a mess but clearly Iran was becoming a big threat to not only Israel but many of the other Gulf States and was clearly doing scary stuff with nuclear weapons that required action.
    • I can't find any references to an attack on a British base. where do you find one?
    • Flea darts...now there's a thing from my past I had long forgotten about - goodness our ! This thread title does always bring a smile to my face as I can't help but think it suggests a campaign to prevent the removal of someone's stash!
