I emailed the H&G saying how gutted i was that they were leaving and they said they tried to find a new shop in ED but could not find an alternative that stacked up on the numbers. What a little gem we have lost but good luck to the owner on the new business venture.

I always thought the prices in H&G were "silly" - I'm excited about this venture and hope LillyRose does well (I'm sure that when H&G first opened there were plenty of naysayers)!

I don't mind paying a bit of money for some chocolate or fudge or whatever if it's nice and made in small batches. But generic cola bottles/flying saucers/fried eggs/pink shrimps... they're making a serious markup on that stuff.

    • Fair enough - I'm absolutely wrong on that one. 👍
    • I'm still completely unclear what happened, apart from that a car apparently crashed into a lamp post opposite the Co-op. I presume the one in Lordship Lane, though the OP doesn't say. Was it speeding? Did it swerve to avoid someone who ran into the road? Did something go wrong with its brakes or steering? Did the driver have a medical emergency or fall asleep or got  distracted by something? Was there something slippery on the road surface? Was the driver hurt? Were any passengers hurt? Were any pedestrians or other road users hurt? Were there any witnesses? 
    • confused by the question?
    • My point was in response to this:  "The idea that serving as a local councillor (including dealing with the public, internal party politics - which is always the most vicious where the stakes are lowest, and plenty of unpaid prep work) is a great pathway for careerists and moneygrabbers is utter shite. On a per hour basis you'd be far better off working at Sainsbos."   You could give up your job at sainsbury's and do a councillor's work and be very much better off. Most of these councillors earn this sort of money and still have full time jobs on the side.
