Re: Advice for the future!

Don't you find it rather sad that someone would say that to a young child Mike? I do. Are you saying that it's ok or a great example of parenting? I don't. It's interesting how the word 'snob' has changed. Is this snobbery: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JSahEDRjvw&feature=related I take Mike...

Shops used to look proud of themselves. Shop owners would stand outside of of their shops, arms folded with a look of pride on t...

Re: New shop at Cobbs Corner

If it had shops that I would use then I would :D You don't eat fruit and veg? Fish or meat? Bread? Olives? Olive oil? Or read books?

Re: New shop at Cobbs Corner

I thought there was one already? unless its gone since I last shopped in Sydenham. Perhaps you should start again, there are some decent shops, PFC, Fresh n Fruity, Billings etc etc. Support the High Street and it will thrive.
