Not sure I get the VHS connotation, however, finally, a post which hasn't made me cringe at your bigoted views!

There's a nice one in Upland Road, then there's Chener Books on L.L..... Oh no I can hear those voices in my head shouting LEAVE IT SON.....LEAVE IT!!!!!!

Loving the thread but rather boringly can only think it's part of the planning permission for a luxury house with 2 stories plus basement development that was posted on the lamp post 6-8 months ago. I wonder if the basements planned for the other side of the street (old police station)will meet and provide a subterranean community.

I imagine if I gave a s*it I would probably take this as a compliment but tbh, I don't give a toss whether you like my "bigoted views" or not. Nice to know you care enough to post a response to my initial comment though :-)

That might be the 'garden centre' behind it. Permission has been granted to build there.

Nice to see you admitting you're a bigot.

Well...could it double up as both? It seems there's a lot of up-tight people around here who could do with some sort of release..it's not really my style though.

    • 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" ?
