I'm not joking James.... Not a shop I'd use, but knitting does seem very trendy at the moment, so they'd probably get a good bit of business.... There's one in Sydenham which is always busy, but Mrs Keef says their stuff isn't very good...


Anyway, I was just reporting another idea :-$

Who's the guy that sells CDs in North Cross Road market? Does he have a shop, or is it just a Saturday/spare time thing?

A car park is a good idea, but where...?

And the guy that sells CD's on Northcross road doesn't have a shop. He sells CD's at s few markets, but no shop. Despite his stall not having a massive range, it does have a great selection of good music.

And it seems a suggestion of M+S crept in earlier in the thread. To this i'd say a big fat NO!

I think a car park is a terrible idea. I would suggest that all it would do would encourage even more cars into ED for shopping etc: build a 500 car car-park and 1000 cars will arrive. Roughly the same principle applies when motorways are given more lanes...


As for an M & S, I'd welcome a "Simply Food" branch if it took over the Somerfields...


Anyway I think what ED really needs is a newsagent who will deliver Sunday papers...>:D<

I've just come back from Japan, where a lot of the stations have loads (ie hundreds) of lockable cycle racks, for just over one pound a day. It would be very handy to have the same thing here. Mind you... this being London, the racks (and bikes) would probably just get vandalised.

Ther lockers at ED station (under the bridge) are 75 quid per year (plus a 25 quid refundable padlock deposit). You can book them from [email protected] or phone on 01752 202116.


I reckon that's cheaper than a pound a day!


PS It's subsidised by the local council as a test, and they do a quick background check first (e.g. check your place of work).


Hurrah!

casper - you are popping up in lots of threads "wondering" about the rumours you've heard about a new shop opening up which some "local nosey parker thinks is going to be a maternity shop" and "reckoning" we need a maternity shop. Your fingers wouldn't be inky from the fresh signing of a new commercial lease would they?


Why not just come clean and say you're opening a new shop if you are.


Your surreptitious marketing techniques are a bit transparent.


Or perhaps you are just extremely interested in maternity wear? You're certainly right that there are plenty of bumps about, but to my eye they're always very nicely turned out already...

    • Tend to use 37 or 42 bus as rarely been able to find parking space. Sods Law - there is sometimes a few spaces when I bus it.!
    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
    • I really have to smile as I was the one, years ago who posted about what Gala was.. had not a clue, but drove and drive regularly. Felt such a fool at the time but wow, years later post still comes up.. with comments. Still don’t understand why a lot of park is cordoned off and glad not a resident overlooking park.. must be so noisy but now dates have been kindly supplied, those that don’t want to chill and listen to music in their flats/houses can up sticks and explore UK or abroad. Totally understand that in a built up area and millions in London, music events take place all over the capital to allow access to all.  Brockwell  Park, Dulwich Park, don’t hear anything going on in or around Telegraph Hill or indeed Horniman Gardens.. Crystal Palace I believe do their own thing.  Do these events , clearly charge, provide their own insurance, public liability, crowd control, first aiders, security and policing? Rubbish clearance etc
