It looks like somewhere Starf*cks would snap up. The weekend influx of out-of-towners would step out from the train station, be presented with the eye full of said Starf*cks and think "ooohh, this place must be up and coming..." and then their gaze would land on the 350k box flats upstairs where they would nearly wet themsleves in excitement!!.....

perhaps it could be a newsagents, there's already 5 in a 200yd radius of there so one more won't matter.


On Cl****m High street there's a massive Sainsburys and a smaller one about 500 yds away, the smaller one was bought by Sainsburys a few years ago when it came up for sale (even though it's really close to the massive one) so that Tescos couldn't buy it. Now I notice there's a big spanking new Tescos opening up right in the middle of the two, I guess it's war between those two.


Now I'm not wanting to get into a debate about the similarities of the two areas but the point is that the big name supermarkets will do anything to make an impact on an area. That shop opposite the station would make a great supermarket express/local/kwike-mart as it would be seen by everyone who walks out the station. Fill it wall to wall with ready-meals, milk and posh looking wine and it can't fail.


My bet is on it being a mini-supermarket (but I haven't a clue how much floor space and storage there is)

    • I had a fantastic experience with Saied. Over two days, they worked hard to remove a large patch of invasive bamboo and tidied up the garden beautifully. They were polite, professional, and very easy to deal with from start to finish. Everything was done efficiently and with great care. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them 
    • So you prefer to just complain and moan ad nauseum without ever being able to point to a better path? as a country we are not taxed to the hilt. Not historically in this country or by comparing to other countries.    where are you getting inflation is falling from - it’s been a bit up and down for a while but not really trending downward.  But even if it was, real world prices lag behind - but it’s not universal - so things like rent could continue to spiral     
    • Maybe the Church will move a bit back towards the centre and be less liberal. 
    • It's not who I admire, it's who's best to turn this country around and solve the multitude of problems the population experiences on a daily basis. People's pockets are only so deep and can only afford so much before they eventually have to rely on the State and that costs even more. The Cost of living spiralling, although inflation is apparently falling, right, yeah, NOT. Taxed to the hilt, wages/pensions not rising sufficiently to keep up, resulting in unemployment increasing, businesses not able to afford to keep or take on staff. It's a rollercoaster that is hard if not impossible to stop.
