vision express will be opening very soon in the old jewellers emporium.

Risky venture this I reckon, particularly with Tesco's attacking this element of the market. We've already seen our Victor plugging the Tesco opticians. Still, I hope they make a success of it without putting evermore undue pressure on our existing town centre opticians.

Are they blind or short sighted? Can`t they see we have ample opticians already?

Competition is healthy - Vision Express are actually run as franchise operations.

I`m glad you said that one Howard.
You`re right above Tony, competition is healthy, but regarding eating places, it depends what`s being sold.
