Remember when Martin Platt ran the hospital single handed. No matter what you went in for Nurse Martin was on hand.

It’s not much different now with the medical centre. There’s only Dr Gaddas, yet you can walk in at any time and, following a bit of token grumbling from Moira, she can see you straightaway. Which is funny, because there are about ten GPs at the practice I’m with, yet it takes over a week to be seen.

It has just dawned on me why none of them have cars outside their houses! They don’t need to drive anywhere because all the essential shops/businesses are on their doorsteps! including the long standing, always has business, mechanics Grin

Surely that coop would have put Rita and Dev out of business? Likewise, the Costa would have finished off Roy's Rolls.

And what happenedto the bookies? Did that become the community centre?

No matter what the local landlord does to you or your family, you’ll still drink in his pub.
Did he cheat on your sister? A pint please.
Murdered your nana? G&T coming right up.
Jilted you at the altar by faking his own death? Don’t forget the ice and a slice!

Also, hats off to the ladies in the factory, they may be doing fiddly work involving their fingers and needles, but they still have two-inch long acrylic nails and perfect manis.

Yy to the car thing! Yet they all seem to have cars when they actually need them, they don't have drives or garages so where on earth does everyone keep their cars?!

@BrokenWing I think Peter ran the bookies into the ground and Tracy bought it with her (now ex) partner and turned it into a florists.
