I will miss Take Your Pick, it's such a useful little shop. All the best to the owners for the future and thanks for great service over the years. I was thinking the other day that the retail units planned for the Ballymore redevelopment seem to have been based on achieving high rents from the usual identikit businesses that you see everywhere, yawn, and I wonder how that will pan out now? Badly, one must assume. Would have been better to have tried to create something with a point of difference, eg focused on independent and craft businesses, but I guess there's no money in that. But there's no money in the 'high street' either now. I'm also mystified about what's happening with the upmarket supermarket that is supposed to form part of the Ballymore plan, in light of the Watermans relocation also involving, supposedly, two small supermarkets. |
