Of course its not genuine Japanese.

I'd be surprised if it was big enough for Wagamama

What other chain has popped up? I can't think of any indie that has been replaced by a chain in years.

A very astute observation.


However, people have been banging on for at least ten years about chains taking over. What have we got... Cafe Nero, Oliver Bonas, Gourmet Burger... that's about it I think.

But neither Foxtons or Picture House took over their site from independent shops. Franco Manca is taking over the site from another small chain. I get the point of course, but nevertheless, the prediction of "indies squeezed out by chains" has not really materialised yet to any significant extent.

" the prediction of "indies squeezed out by chains" has not really materialised yet to any significant extent."


this is ultimately true, to date. Helped by the small unit sizes 9as many people have said over the years)


And yet, and yet.... change is in the air I think

Exactly-- no indie has been taken over by a chain. And there are really very few large chains.

      People could also walk around every business and ask them individually if there's any updates, but ....

      I have had disappointing deliveries from matoom too, it seems better when I've eaten in. Also they do their own deliveries if you order from their website.

      Gardening tips for February

      By Gardenman · Posted

      Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
