Just to satisfy Zeb's expectations, I said in an earlier post that I understand this will give LL full high street status and push up business rates, thus forcing out some of the last remaining independents. Does anybody know the position on this?


Thanks.

If this were to happen shops would be left empty, if for no better reason than the footprint of most LL shops is well below the square meterage that most chains would be interested in. The reason we have so many estate agents is that offices of this nature can operate in small(er) premises (notwithstanding the great misue of retail opportunity space that is Foxton's).

I knew that I was tempting fate when I said that I was waiting for the negative posts to appear on this thread.


My main inclination is to greet the news that cinema has gained planning permission by quoting Margaret Thatcher (a person who incidentally I hated greatly) and shouting "Rejoice!"

Surely Taboo (1980) is in your collection Louisa?

...and, excluding the big disco hits, how much soul and funk was played on say Radio 1 or talked about in the NME? When I went to Univesrity in 1981 the soundtrack at the Student Union was very, very white...a lot of people didn't know any James Brown tracks for example

      It’s full-on consumerism season now until, well, Easter probably.

      Oh Rachel....

      Well thanks for enriching the conversation.  Would you chuck Fah - rage in too for his tax avoidance on his property?   I expect it was lead story on Jeremy Vine too.  Doesn't make it a story, just a bit more of BBC tabloid style sensationalism.  There are numerous real news stories in the UK and across the world.  And now, apt for Halloween, you have summoned up the ghost of Louisa. So for the third time, will you now eat humble pie?
