Fugue Music has relocated to Market Place. There is a sign on an empty shop in High Street saying a Turkish barber is opening there soon. The former MissElany secondhand furniture shop on Salisbury Street has now been sold and is being refurbished for a new occupier.
Bakezillas has opened at 210 Derby Road, Stapleford. It makes bespoke cakes, cupcakes and treats for all occasions in the kitchen behind the shop. www.bakezillasbespokecakes.co.uk. Also see the Bakezillas FB page. Another new Stapleford venture is Annebella's at 166 Derby Road where Shabbilicous used to be. The cafe offers beverages, milkshakes, cakes, scones and sarnies as well as breakfast and lunch. Small daytime events are also catered for and see the FB page for details of Annebella's event nights.
The Meeting Place at Nottingham Road, Stapleford has closed. Lots of community events were held there as well as a police contact point. The building of the new Aldi in Stapleford is yet to commence as the issue of new housing alongside the site has still not been resolved.
My favourite carvery is Bartlewood Lodge as it has the beast roasties as well as a fish option. But for a change I have recently been to Eaton Farm several times. I have had an issue there with the siting of table one which consists of 3 small tables to seat 6 diners. There is only room for one person to pass by and someone is in danger of getting gravy down the back of their neck. I spoke with manager Brian about this and he disagreed with me and he also denied that in the event of an evacuation people could not get by safely.
So it was back to Bartlewood Lodge but I found a fire safety problem there too. There is a fire exit which is not alarmed that is regularly used to exit into the car park. On the evening of july 8th both sides were bolted at the top and no child or disabled person would have been able to use it. I assume that the staff did not unbolt when they opened up and so left everyone at risk.
Property is selling quickly in Long Eaton and other areas and at very strong prices too. There is a lack of supply as agents are reporting that the average number of homes for sale per agent is at a 40 year low. Online only agents keep springing up and one of the latest is Doorsteps which claims to have over 800 for sale. Amazingly, their fee is just 99 quid! But, like online leader Purplebricks, they do not say what proportion go through to completion.
