I've just heard that the launderette on the corner of London Road and Devonshire Road may well be closing. Apparently the owner was in there with a couple of estate agents from Pedder and are looking at turning it into [irony]much needed[/irony] offices.

This is a real pain. I've used that place for the last 10 years. Both Gwen and Diane (RIP) have done a fantastic job over the years. As it's a private venture I guess the owner can do what he wants.

Personally I'd like to know how he can look himself in the mirror after sacking someone who's worked for him for 15+ years.
