  Why do we need a convenience store there when Sainsburys is round the corner surely they know in that competition Sainsburys will win hands down and what can a convenient store sell that Sainsburys cannot it's a no win situation for the Convenient store.
  Would be nice if they brought back the Long bar coffee house for those old enough to remember or something for the the teenagers to get them off the street at nights instead of this ludicrous idea that we need another store selling cheap beer and over priced everyday items.

  Anything is better than empty shops but please not the garish window coverings. They downgrade the whole area and there are enough in this area
  Also a bit close to Sainsbury's for a food shop

  If this tyoe of design gets approved its in contrast the the recent updated shop design guide .
  
  Recap - South Kesteven District Council said the updated Shopfront Design Guide applied to the historic centres of Stamford, Bourne, Grantham and Market Deeping.
  
  It discourages the use of bright or garish colours and certain types of projecting signs.
  
  If this is approved skdc might as well rip that guide up.
  Also we all know the shops that have these window covers have them as they are selling something they shouldnt.

  Personally I really don't like the pictures of groceries that form the window displays in these shops. What's the point of having a window? They may as well brick them up or just paint them white. Anything but these horrible tacky pictures.
