It's a good job you're on the ball.<br /><br />I think the days are gone when we were served with a smile and greeting through genuine pleasure. It's like being served by polite automatons (if you're lucky) wherever you go. It doesn't replace small-talk and genuine interest in each others lives.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288556385811134829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5534679970477261563.post-44281038463347489372012-11-16T17:38:59.659+00:002012-11-16T17:38:59.659+00:00Well one high street shop has been sold at auction...Well one high street shop has been sold at auction and we ALL await what delights it will offer to us over the coming Christmas period, that's if it opens by then.<br /><br />I refer to what I still call Sutcliffes newsagents, over the road from the Railway Tavern on Station Road. It was a pleasure to see the smiles on the faces of both of the mature ladies who used to serve in his shop (John Sutcliffe) many years ago when I used to say 'good morning girls' as I popped in to pay my paper bill back when 'papers were delivered, happy days ! ! !<br /><br />ALI (Gladstone St)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5534679970477261563.post-82177779470456042932012-10-21T09:05:59.376+01:002012-10-21T09:05:59.376+01:00DerbyshireRetailHelp @Retail_Help
What do you thi...DerbyshireRetailHelp @Retail_Help<br />What do you think is needed to improve local shopping in Derbyshire, both Online and on our High Streets?info@derbyshireretailhelp.co.uk :-)<br /><br />The above paragraph is quoted from one of my received tweets, obviously I have responded.<br /><br />I really don't know how many times we have to tell them, and they still keep asking the same old question. <br />In my opinion its as clear as the nose on your face. THEY DON'T JUST GET IT!!!!!<br />To go against the grain and public opinion a charge has been introduced as you say J on the Cromford road car park, which is one reason to make me not visit the "HIGH STREET" in Langley Mill.<br />What it will do is encourage the public to use the FREE Asda car park and shop at Asda.<br /><br />Surely that's defeating the objective of the mission to resurrect traders of local shops.<br />Do the council really and truly want high street shopping to return or is what they say just a smoke screen?<br />I am now beginning to think it's a smoke screen and the council are not shopper friendly, but very greedy!dayveehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12500981039950277194noreply@blogger.com
