[News] Incident Boundary Road/NCR Jnct

[Weststander]

Anyone ever get their hair cut at Anna’s on boundry road back in the day?

Free head massage with every cut. If you know you know.

I always got a cut from one of her rubbish male speed-merchants

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

My son saw the entire thing from the coming together to the medical efforts and arrests. He was yards away.

Gave his details to a PCSO, not heard a word since.

That’s awful for him.
Hope he’s okay….
Very harrowing to witness something like that

Thanks. He seems okay, so far. Currently on FIFA …. learning how to be dispassionate.

There are a lot of gentlemen who insist on Anna, but then again she’s had some interesting colleagues over the years. Some good, many not so.

All but 20 metres from Dan Burn's Agents' office. Hope the boys are OK.

who n is his agent ?

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

I never said it wasn't round a corner.
I also believed the incident to be by the skips outside where Keehan's Antiques used to be in Franklin Road. I have no evidence to support that, your Honour.

I do think you may need to reassess your measurements but I have to congratulate you on superb and the correct use of commas in your post

Sorry, hadn’t read whole thread and see @LamieRobertson had already asked…

No problem at all. I hope Gracie’s well!

I suspect that you may be enquiring after one of @One Teddy Maybank's offspring, but I would appreciate being allowed to use that as a Euphemism on NSC in future on a whole number of occasions

Are there really?

None in Ditchling when we picked up our eggs last week. Not sure there were three shops in total in the Devon villages we drove through to get to The Manor back in February. Don’t even think there’s a Turkish in Steyning from memory.

There are f***ing loads in Boundary Road though.

2 in our village. Plus another 10 hairdressers and barbers! It’s quite ridiculous. Both Turkish places opened after everything else already established. You’d think we’ve a colony of wookies nearby given the numbers. Neighbouring village now has 3, and two others both have two now. These in addition to already established hairdressers and barbers. They’ll be in lay-bys soon. Fancy a burger and a quick trim? Coming right up…

Yeah it’s a difficult balance. No lines crossed so far though.

I would point out for those unfamiliar with the area that there seem to be too many barbers on the road for them all to make money. But you can also say the same thing for off licences, charity shops, distinctly average cafes, fast food takeaways and pound / discount shops.

People are bound to draw their own conclusions.

"The Portslade Turkish Barber Shop Wars" doesn't roll quite so easily off the tongue as "The Glasgow Ice Cream Wars" though.

So there are three Turkish Barbers in one village near you, two in some others and none in some villages in Sussex, rather than “three in most villages” .

What villages would those be then

Is that Roy Grace in an under cover role?

 

[Weststander]

Meet Gracie and feel free!

Good looking and she knows it

All I'll add is that I was in HB with my 6 year old a week or so ago (for the first time) and they seemed a very nice friendly bunch in there

 

[BBassic]

There’s a hideous bar/pub just south of Richer Sounds. I’ve seen fights outside a few times, usually 60 year old pissheads.

The Bat and Ball perhaps?

Barmaid short-changed me in there the last time I went in there and lied directly to my face about having done it.

That was twenty years ago.

There was widespread use of bats outside.

My ploy when sensing dodgy staff was to faux apologise beforehand with “Sorry, I’ve only got a twenty” or whatever was relevant.
