Paul is not opening in ED

[Sophie1981]

I checked with head office. Can we use the forum for its purpose- useful or interesting stuff for the community, not rumours about stuff that's not going to happen, it's boring and wastes people's time. Thanks!!

yes, whatever next? If we're not careful, before we know it, people may start rumours about Waitrose opening in ED!!!!!!!!

Apologies Sophie1981, but is this section of the forum not named 'General ED issues / gossip'? I only shared information someone had mentioned in passing conversation, I didn't specifically know whether or not they had any plans to come to our little area of south London, hence my speculation on where they would setup a shop if indeed they did have any plans to come here in the first place, which clearly they do not according to you. Judging by their website, they seem quite an attractive shop which would ideally suit the demographic in ED. anyway, apparently they're NOT coming here so I do apologise most sincerely for using this section of the forum for what it's meant to be used for, eg sharing ED specific gossip/rumours.

Not that I care one way or other about Paul. But until leases are signed, sealed and delivered, no-one in any company head office is going to confirm a new opening.

So... I wonder if Waitrose would open a Very Little Waitrose in the Soupdragon premises ;-p

Who is 'Paul'?

[UncleBen]

Can't believe you contacted their H/O! Sheesh, some people sure do have a lot of time on their hands!

Keep up the good work, Louisa

If I want to post ill-informed rubbish on here then I shall.

I have it on good authority that Spohie was actually born in 1979, but is just pretending to be a child of the 80s. FACT.

Why on earth did you start a new thread with the sole purpose of saying that something is not happening, rather than posting on the thread the "rumour" as you call it was actually mentioned in?

Now lots more people will be aware of the "rumour" which is denied by Paul's Head Office. Applespider is right - so, it remains a rumour which may or may not be true.

And thanks for letting us all know what the purpose of the forum is :))
