Could it not be for the bookies although it is in a strange place for the bookies .autoden windows now whitened out .noticed archers are now closing on a Mondays .either making to much money or not worth opening Mondays .
. What is going on .coops had a goods move around don't know what that's going to do . It's goods on shelves that matter ...

Bargain Booze: I went into the shop today to buy my usual drink (non-alcoholic!). The manager wasn't in the shop, but I queried the sale of the business with the two ladies that were serving. I was informed the landlord was putting up the rent on the shop and the manager was not best pleased with this situation. The business is indeed a franchise.

I hope it continues to trade as it is. I'm happy with the service and the prices.

Asda worked out well in hazel grove, same success could happen at the co-op in marple.

Marple still wanting service, stock and sensible prices.

Yep, the landlord wants to put the rent up, the owner of the franchise is telling him to take a reality check, the owner can obviously move to any empty shop at a rent that is pretty much rent-free. I hope BB pulls it off and stops the greedy landlord being such a greedy so & so.

You remind me of JR in Dallas, they didn't see that one coming.

I'm away on holiday for a few weeks and although I'm fully wifi'd up at the hotel, have been challenged by 'er indoors' to keep away from any form of social media.

Back soon... Send a smoke signal if they try building an ASDA while I'm away ;-)

It looks like some sort of dress shop is opening up where the dress agency was.

It is a hive of activity today.

Not bargain booze there.

Does the Co-op not own the Hollins or do they only own the shop where Costa is and the empty one next door?

The market will dictate, this is just a good example of a free market.

Thats a real shame if true, I always go there.

Cheapest, nice staff, nice selection of ales.

Where to go after that? Coop isnt great, the Chirch Lane (!) shop is a ripoff...
