Opening and closing

[funkychick]

I see the Leather shop opp the PO have a closing down notice saying they are moving to High street but that's where they came from seems strange

The card shop in Kirkley is closing down, nice couple had that for quite a good few years

Essex and Suffolk water moving I had to look up Caning St as I d never heard of it but its down by the river is this built on a flood plain by any chance?

Anyone know what's happening to the old one part of my old school with a lovely little chapel inside which I m told has been kept ?

Right by Lings so I would imagine there is a good chance of flooding, unless they have built flood protection.

Lings only lost about £1,000,000 worth of vehicles in the earlier floods.

I wonder why they called it Canning Road? Hmmmm!

[funkychick]

Nothing to do with the canning factory i suppose ???

[boatbuilder]

Now why didn't I think of that having worked there for several years?

Heard a rumour that MacDonalds were going to build a new drive through at the top of Denmark Road and close the one in town down.

[boatbuilder]

I can't see the sense in doing that, if the rumour is true. Surely having the one where it is at present is more sensible for those people in town. I assume when you say the 'top of Denmark Road' you are referring to the west end.

I was told near the Lake Lothing pub, so I envisaged that piece of wasteland by the roundabout.

[funkychick]

Well cant imagine that happening myself all the kids that go in MacD's when hanging around town wouldn't go trailing down Denmark Rd I wouldn't have thought

[nikkai]

The current one does NOT have the drive through which if there was one at the roundabout it would.

I had a bit of a shock when I needed a piece of bathroom furniture today when I dashed over to the Harfreys industrial estate only to find out that coopers huge store had been closed since Christmas. What a shame it was a very useful store, obviously not enough customers.

That's a great shame. The shop in Gt Yarmouth centre closed some time ago also.
