>>Dont be ridiculous, why would Sainsburys have a small local store that close to a big supermarket, especially in difficult economic times it wouldnt make sense! <<


Well they have a small local one in Herne Hill, not that much further from DKH than the Plough parade is. I think one just there could so quite well myself.

Hi, anyone know what the plans are for the area behind the new Somerfield (or whatever it will be), I live a few doors down Landells Road and am now horrified that HGVs will be backing in to make deliveries 24hrs a day! The apartments which have been built above the shops all have balconies facing the back, not a nice view if it's just to be parking.

Another Foxtons apparently

We won't get an M&S or a Waitrose here.


Why.

Look at Northcote rd in Battersea. Same type of set up to E.D. Varied professional Middle class locals and others , lots of "village-y" variety, a market & far too much competition from strong independents.


To be noted, they have no real bank cash points & only a Co-Op in the main street.

When I lived in Clapham south M&S moved in because of good demographics but no serious competition.


E.D is a victim / winner of it's own success.


Enjoy it as it is.......who needs them anyway..........really?


I may be wrong but I doubt it..........!


W**F

Dear Mitch,

Surely you are not insinuating that the only people that frequent Somerfields are riff-raff? I see mostly middle class people exiting the shop on Lordship Lane.


Your comment is so frightfully upper class and 2006.


Kind regards,

Libra Carr.

I would support the nightclub idea.


Everyone on the terrace having tearful disco sunrise moments as the sun rises over LL.


Huge dubstep night on Wednesdays.


8-hour minimal sets from me and Villalobos at afterhours session starting at 12 pm sundays.


Get Tim Sheridan down to do something.


*likes this idea*

Actually, with mainstream artists like La Roux handing over remix duties to the likes of Skream and even Lil wayne picking up on the sound this year - not to mention Martyn et al helping evolve it from its more simple roots of a few years back I'll stick my neck out and say it'll probably be around for a few years yet.


Um, yeah, where were we. Somerfield, eh?

Not really. Not that someone would promo dubstep as a genre anyways ; )

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
