tranquility has gone

Post by bertie 83 »

how gutted was i when i turned up at poss the best local fish shop ever today, tranquility in woodingdean near brighton. to find it was closed. i was only there a week ago and all was fine. small family run business for over 30 yrs, i have been frequenting there for 15. always top advice at a price we can all afford, yet they cease trading and chains with b/s advice continue ..... rip tranquility.

I'd be crushed too if my LFS suddenly closed. Been going there for 25 years.
