how large is large?
a pint is a pint unless your in europe/america where they will shortchange you
hmm i think its a village
In England and Wales, a town traditionally was a settlement which had a charter to hold a market or fair and therefore became a "market town". Market towns were distinguished from villages in that they were the economic hub of a surrounding area, and were usually larger and had more facilitie

That's a very large village as I say in my village which I thought was large 2 of anything would struggle to make a living , but I still stand by my view of lots of shops together must buy cheap or have price fixing of some sort if they are 3 restaurants not one a takeaway.surely the best one would get most people or the cheapest would get most people , but please unless you get into a discussion with me don't call me names

I'm no economist but I've noticed that for some reason shops of the same type do tend to open in the same place, whether it's convenience shops, barbers, electrical wholesalers, kebab shops or indeed indian restaurants. Provided they're all of a similar quality which considering in the case of an Indian restaurant they are if they get their food from the same suppliers, they will all do a similar amount of trade rather than one thrives while another goes bust.

I suppose the idea is if one is busy then the overflow will go to the next one so waiting times will be similar in each, instead of someone choosing to wait ages because one is the restaurant to be seen in. Presumably an Indian restaurant doesn't get a lot of passing trade, so having 3 together will make that area a destination.

Possibly I suppose but with food I would have thought that people would have there favourites we have a couple of Chinese within a 7 mile radius and one we don't really like and the other we do. So I would not go to the first one at all
And there is an estate where there were 3 wholesalers (electrical ) but in the end one closed down as people would just go to the cheapest and one of the others I think is having it a bit lean

I think the idea is as you say people have their favourites - some people will prefer one restaurant and others will prefer another, but anyone turning up at their favourite to find a long wait has the option to go to the restaurant next door, or to try the one next door to compare it.
In Poole there's an industrial estate with a Wilts, Rexell Senate, Screwfix, until recently a Newey & Eyre, and in the industrial estate next door there's an Edmundsons. If you want electrical materials that's the part of town to go to, then if one wholesaler hasn't got what you want you can go next door. What often happens though is someone will have their preferred supplier because they get a good rate.

I think most people call it that TBOne of our friends who has a restaurant there calls it "Asian Road"
We have tried most of them there, parking is a bit of a ball ache sometimes but the food is definitely worth the effort. Coming from near Brum, I was familiar with the "curry quarter" where the very first balti restaurants were opened in the UK throughout Sparkbrook, Sparkhill etc.
There was one that was so rough, they didn't have carpets, wallpaper or a proper toilet but the food was to die for. There used to be police patrolling outside moving the drug dealers and hookers on as they were touting their trade waiting for customers to come out. The pub opposite was a notorious drug den and the landlord had 2 GSD's and a Rottie with a rubber band around his bits which he kept on the flat roof above the pub..... snarling and dribbling at the public. Great stuff. :laugh:

Those places are usually the best!
We used to go to some joints up Winson Green way and Bradford, no fancy cutlery there.
Better than any fancy restaurant any day.

Absolutely agree!! If you asked for toilet paper, they would look at you as if to say "dafuq?" Just brilliant.
