Just had an email about 2 new shops becoming available in Newbury... 1st is Barclays in the market place. Is the time to co-incide with the opening of Parkway? http://www.shopproperty.co.uk/DisplayShop....40003320547PKLHThe property is targeted for vacant possession in October 2011 and my clients would like to secure a tenant in advance of their vacation. The staff and customers have not yet been made aware of this and all information is provided on a confidential basis. All conversations should be with sole agents BNP Paribas Real Estate.2nd is Ann Summers, probably in June when their lease comes up for review(not expire). http://www.shopproperty.co.uk/DisplayShop....40000116345HEXO

It would be good if anyone can confirm this as it will affect a great many people. I would have thought that if they were cutting back they would have closed the branch in Northbrook street but I guess it's all about lease timings. The Northbrook branch is going to become very crowded.

QUOTE (dannyboy @ Jan 20 2011, 10:28 PM) A random sample, then yes I'd concur. But I was just refering to the knee jerks on here. Such as assuming that there was some clandestine council meeting of the council when in fact all we had was user error. You assume a user error. That hasn't been proven. Perhaps the person responsible for IS at the council read the post and quickly corrected matters? In any-case, no harm done.

QUOTE (dannyboy @ Jan 20 2011, 08:57 PM) Funny how wrong you can be with a knee jerk reaction. I'm missing something subtle here. As Barclays will be moving to Parkway and the Northbrook street branch will likely close when the lease expires in 2013. What is wrong with the information and what is the "knee jerk" reaction?

Are you suggesting that most readers would jump to the conclusion that Barclays would be leaving town. If so, I didn't. I assume they would be moving elswhere in the town and consolidate the two branches.

QUOTE (Biker1 @ Jan 21 2011, 10:47 AM) Are knee jerk reactions always a bad thing? Knee jerks tend to make people question what was meant and usually get the situation explained clearly; must be good to have knee jerks then?
