Yeah, it was pretty cool. It was in a similar format to the annual Easter egg hunt that is held on the High Street, in that various shops have a sticker in their window to indicate that they are participating. The littl'uns would go in and fill up their bags accordingly........ Shame if it isnt ...

Does anybody know whether the shops along the high street will be celebrating Halloween as they have done in previous years, handing out goodies to all of the youngsters in their costumes? This always seemed very popular so would be great if it was being repeated again............

It was a shame that the Linen shop decided to set up a table selling tea towels outside, with two girls trying very hard to drown out the live music from across the road with their own stereo though! I agree Poppy, although glad to say that they didn't manage to succeed in respect of the 3 or 4 ...

I walked past on my way home from the station around 5ish, and it certainly looked like they had been robbed. A number of police officers were on the scene interviewing what I took to be witnesses, a hole had been smashed in the bottom of one of the panes of glass and it appeared as if the window ...

Totally disagree guys. Humps increase noise levels, cause drivers to actually speed up between humps, raise pollution and cause destructive shockwaves for nearbye properties. Worst invention ever....and they don't work I appreciate what you are saying Dave, however, as a parent with 2 children ...

Anyone know what it's called? If its been open a month they still have no sign, so It's no wonder no-one realizes they are there! What if... The old Lady Metros signage came down about a week ago to be replaced with the current black hoarding. I therefore guess that they're in the process of ...

Oh dear. I popped into the gift shop today after work and none of the stuff was my cup of tea at all. Not really aimed at my kind of market or for my friends for that matter. I think the items (which actually from a distance seemed to be quite nicely made)there are really aimed at a 4-8 year old ...

No - just a desire to see a high street that has good quality shops other than the plethora of hairdressers, pound shops and nail bars that we are becoming used to!

Has anybody visited the new gift shop based in the old Lady Metros unit (next to the Peppermint Designer kids store)? Apparently it sells lots of funky items for the house as well as designer jewellery etc. My missus (who knows much more about this sort of thing than me!), says it's the sort of shop ...
