Stafford, late night shopping?

The original comment was " I know that you and littleme (who I like!) didn't see eye to eye, but I quite liked your shop."

I edited it out because I thought that on reflection it didn't seem relevant to bring your name up.
Yes, its a shame, loss of any business or job is a terrible thing to go through - hopefully the owner will be able to find new premises...

I asked the Guildhall shopping centre about the delay to the refurbishments.... Their response...

"We need to have the right people with the right skills so there is minimal disruption to all. Won't be long now :)"

Blah blah blah

I believe her lease is due to expire. If she does want to go it's best to go while there is so much Retail unrest. Why would you want to sign a new lease in the Guildhall at the moment ? If she does go she can hold her head high - she gave it a go which is more than can be said for most, especially the Christmas pop up shops who even get away with paying Business Rates as by the time the Council cotton on, they have gone....
Told you it would never last. Wrong shop, wrong town

Actually if you read, I am not leaving because it's the wrong shop in the wrong town, PLEB
I would like to stay in Stafford if I can find a suitable premises.
It must be so hard finding premises, there are hardly any empty shops in Stafford are there. Plenty of vacant stalls in the market too. New stakeholders get concessions on rent, I believe.

Enjoying a drop of red.

Sorry, have you used your own money and taken the risk of starting your own business? Because unless you have I really don't see how you can comment.

I am not the one complaining about how hard it is to find premises in a town with such a vast number of empty shops and stalls.
As a senior manager in a local company I am directly responsible for the employment of about 400 people. That is certainly a far greater contribution to the local economy than running a little rented shop that sells (or actually doesn't sell) pointless items that no one wants and blaming its demise in the landlord.

Senior manager?

Dickhead, you couldn't manage a thing.
