Colin you shouldnt have deleted the picture, now some of us dont know what we're talking about ( nothing new there !lol)..but it helped paint the overall picture..
I would like to have seen it.
The thing is these shops are legal and perfectly entitled to open, but sadly they do congregate and fester in areas where they expect the recession to bite most, or where they know poverty is the byword. They make their living from the high interest rates charged, so the 'live now pay later' philosphy which once was so prevalent many years ago, seems to be coming back bigtime. Thats a sad indictment on the current state of society...and its only going to get worse.
