Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......

Why pay £1.30 to town when i can walk 100yds :D

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

ahh but the accy one wont have coaches filled with nutty old people on motorised scooter things so your ankles will be safer in accy lol

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

LOL, good point!:p

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

As long as they don't start taking my hoodie trade thats fine :D

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

hope they realise that when selling gloves in accy the gloves will not require room for the extra thumb like in ossy mills

sorry couldnt resist only jokin :D

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Same applies to selling hats in Accy, the extra room won't be needed for brains :D

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Noticed there was work in progress when I walked past earlier. Hope it does well because the empty shops are very off putting.

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Get in touch with them....could be a good move....serious.

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

That's good news as far as I am concerned, specially if they have some concessions in there, home made stuff, maybe some home furnishings etc. It's a big old unit that, glad someone has taken it on so quickly, I had heard a rumour that there were several interested parties but glad it's stayed local.:)
IF Accrington Stanley had any business acumen about them they would be looking to get in there......:rolleyes:

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Have you moved yet?

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

That's very good news, that an empty store is to be reopened so soon.:)

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

well it sure beats pound shops.:)

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

I'd research that step most thoroughly.

I've heard of more than one tale, where people believe they were treated shoddily.

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

I worked for Ray Lyndon in the early 80s he had a store which was the old Palace cinema on the corner of Peel Street, I managed the DIY store up stairs and the ground floor was made up of concessions, including a cafe, pet food, food, shoes, perfume and toiletries, handbags, jewelry and others, did very well and was always quite busy

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Don't worry, I will :)

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Oh i remember ray lyndons as a kid, the cafe was right at the back if my memory serves me right ....why did it shut?:(

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Don't know panther, Ray sold it and I finished through ill health just prior to that:confused: but that cafe was great, Ray was never eally pleased when t was his turn to buy the breakfast and I ordered a Bacon Butty:D

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Bright orange seats i think they were.....also remember a shoe stall.....what else was there?

Re: Ossy Mills to open in Accy......
 

Ray Lyndon took over the old woolies in Blackpool I think!
