Theres only 2 shops, a pub and an indian takeaway in our village, they are on the 'main street' so them I guess

I live about a two minute walk from a front row of shops. There’s a bookies, a cafe, a florist, a convenience shop, two hairdressers, an Indian takeaway, a Chinese takeaway, a chippy, an undertakers, a little Tesco, a barnardos and a bakers. There’s been a unit redundant for a couple of years but it’s apparently turning into a gin bar.

In my adult life i've always lived close by to convenience stores but literally never ever used them, id rather walk the extra 10 mins to a supermarket.

shame, you get friendly service, even more so when they get to know you and the prices are much the same, as corner shops are generally part of chain stores now like Londis
