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.

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
