I didn't know some of the shops were open on Sunday. When I visit places like Penge, for example, I see the high street vibrant and live every day of the week. I am not sure what it's like on Sundays because my shopping is during the week and now on Saturdays at the market.
I don't know what the problem is with DR and the whole of FH, are the prices competitive with other shops? Are owners prepared to give discounts? or loyalty cards to customers? Are shop owners friendly enough for people to browse around? Can the shop windows be made permanently more attractive?
The best spots seem to be taken by estate agents and it is very difficult to park, as everybody says. I had to park in Sydenham and walk all the way to London Road and back, in order for me to stop at every shop and see what is going on in the area. Two hours at Pearcefield car par were not enough.
