They did. I rented Jean-Luc Godard's "Week End" from there once. That's been out of circulation for years. I'm really sad to see it go, they had a really good back catalogue.

Indeed, although I've been curious as to why that stays empty for so long. The video shop's only what 50 yards away from I guess - I just looked at google streetview and the shop next to the video shop's empty - what's in there now as I can't remember?


There's a whole thread on what ED needs on here and that's a decent sized shop with I'm sure a decent size rent - it'll be interesting to see how the real world fills this one, as well as the stationers and the one next to the Co-op.


My vote is for a car dealer, plenty of pavement there eh? ;-)

I respectfully disagree about Our Price JCTG.

Know the price of everything and the value of nothing seems to be their mission statement/philosophy/paraphrased Irish writer quote.

They should really emblazon it across their LP carrier bags.

But they probably won't, what with them being breadheads and everything.


All in all, a Wimpy Bar would be the best local facility.

Seriously, I could murder a Chocolate Bowler right now.

No BookHopper, you're not. What's the opposite of serious? That's what you're being.


You're a bit of an ol' mischief is what you are.


Press for a Wimpy Bar though and I can guarantee to throw considerable support behind you.

An offer, I assure you comes with a Chocolate Bowler should the good people of the Wimpy family achieve their Lordship Lane ambitions.

Glad you agree about the Wimpy BH, it would be a fine addition to the locality.

Of course I know NOTHING about your good self and I meant nothing more than a mildish nudge-in-the-ribs jest.

No offence.

    • PCSOs may not need specific qualifications, but they go through a reasonably rigorous recruitment process. Or at least they used to. It may have changed.
    • The ones I've dropped into may be organised by PCSOs in the SNT but regular PCs have attended. They have actually been a cuppa with a copper, but not necessarily loads of them. 
    • @Pereira Neves "Cuppa with a Coppa" is a misrepresentation as PCSOs are not real police.   They have no more powers of arrest that any public citizen. They may have the "authority" to advise the regular police of a crime - just like Joe Public. One exception is that they can issue fixed penalty notices to people who cycle on a footpath. We see people cycling on the footpath every day but have never seen a PCSO issue a fixed penalty notice to anybody. No  qualifications are needed to become a PCSO.  At best, all they do is reassure and advise the public with platitudes.      
    • Right.  Already too many people saying “labour pushed for longer and more stringent lockdowns” which if nothing else, does seem to give credence the notion that yes people can be brainwashed    Nothing ...  Nothing Labour pushed for was about longer lockdowns.  Explicitly, and very clearly they said “lock down early OR we will be locking down for longer “   ie they were trying to prevent the longer lockdowns we had   But “positive thinking” and “nothing to see here” from Johnson led to bigger problems    as for the hand-wavery about the economic inheritance and markets being spooked by labour budget - look - things did get really really and under last government and they tried to hide it.  So when someone tries to address it, no one is going to be happy.  But pretending all was tickety boo is a child’s response
