Which business would you like in your neighbourhood?

That’s worth knowing. Thank you.
All I need now is a post office! :grinning:

I would like to see something for the youngsters here, like a bowling alley, just somewhere they can gather and enjoy each other’s company, bringing the younger generation together.

I must be the only person in the world who doesn’t like Greggs…though I have to admit I haven’t been in one for years so maybe I wouldn’t be the best person to ask.

There are no shops in the village where I live although there is an honesty box for eggs and people leave out produce for free they’ve grown…not much of that in winter though.

It would be nice to have a village shop it doesn’t have to be big …just a little shop for essentials

You’ve never lived until you have tried a Greggs Tuna Crunch Summer…

A Bike shop would be handy. :bike:

I forgot the old chestnut around here that has been a bone of contention for years

They closed the outdoor swimming pool in a seaside town not far from us and the residents have been hankering for it to be replaced for years

There’s still one about 45 minutes drive away and I mostly swim in the sea but it would be nice

My area along the south coast is fairly well served with most in easy reach, so my answer would but no extras thanks, but perhaps more frequent late busses into and out of the city would be an improvement to keep the already congested access roads lass congested. The City of Chichester always looks and sounds great on the TV, but for locals it can be a nightmare with grockles (visitors) swelling the numbers.

There is an empty shop in our village and I would like to see it become a butchers. There used to be a butchers in the next village but the owners retired. Supermarket butchers are quite good but it isn’t the same as having a nice little butchers shop where the butcher gets to know you and your meat preferences.

An NHS dentist please.

We’re pretty well served where I live, with all the major supermarkets in very easy reach, as well as Lidl, Aldi and Co-op even closer, walking distance. An out of town retail park about 4 miles away has Dunelms, Hobbycraft, Smyths and a couple of ‘pound’ shops. And then we have a shop next to Aldi that is rather like The Range, a bit ramshackle, but has a huge range of goods from toys to stationery,DIY supplies to fancy dress outfits, as well as a very well stocked garden centre.

Sadly, though, our nearby high street (just a short walk from my house) seems to be full of cafes, barbers, nail technicians and charity shops, although we do have an Iceland.

What would I like? Well, the landlord doubled the rent on a wonderful little wool and haberdashery shop about 5 years ago, forcing it to close and become yet another cafe/sandwich bar. I miss that shop terribly, it was my go to for all haberdashery items and now I either have to buy little pre-packed plastic boxes of buttons in Hobbycraft, or order online. So another one of those please!
