Lila's opening in 117 LL (formerly Callows)

[Pickle]

I've bought things from all 3 existing jewellers in the area, they are all lovely shops offering quite different things. I particularly like Zara Taylor, for really affordable things, I've bought some really unique Xmas presents in there recently.

Good luck to the new shop, I think it's great seeing new businesses open up, makes a nice change from seeing them shut down!

I agree you cant appear to please anyone with this lot sometimes :(

The more the empty shops are filled then the better.

Ha Ha and Hear Hear... if an independent store opened selling hand-made sunshine for 50% less than Iceland, am sure there'd be a cheeky complaint about increased traffic, how this new store is going to drive other stores out of business, how they'd really fancy a new store selling widgets instead... etc.

Ron70 is right, we should all cheer up in time for Xmas!

Don't seem to have much on their website.

I suppose it's better than saying 'divorced, bankrupt or dead', which I guess is how most jewellery, especially rings, gets to be second hand

I'm afraid, like maxxi, I was thinking along negative lines- just to add- buying a ring, putting it on, leaving the shop, being grabbed from behind and getting finger with ring chopped off!
