It's a fairly low key affair; Peacocks and Wilkos are about as exciting as it gets. Unsurprising really, given there's only one main shopping level. There are 500+ car parking spaces though (helpful if you're bringing your entourage I guess) and an adjoining leisure centre which is part of Bromley Council's network of facilities. I don't like the layout. You'd think it would be easy enough to design a mall; shops on one side facing shops on the opposite side, but somehow this one seems to get it wrong - too much interrupted flow your Feng Shui master would probably point out. Come for the shops by all means, but not the 'shopping experience'

Normally they a little stand in the store that is always in store even if you do not have a lot of money you can still pick up some thing.

The staff are very friendly too so they are willing to help all the time.

PDSA Orpington however made me SO cross, I hadto write. This was the last of the 8 million charity shops that adorn the High Street in this South East London Satelite, not because there is a super duper new out of town shopping experience but because people like it that way.apparently. After a few minutes of innocent browsing, I became aware of a woman glaring at me over folded, permatanned, leathery arms. Her bright pink mouth pursed like a dogs bottom. I glanced at her and considered what she was doing. If I were a shoplifter, I wouldn't get far as I have a bad leg, but what would I be doing nicking a £4.99 dress anyway? I thought I must be mistaken. I went to the til, then spotted some cameras so left the queue to take a better look. As I peered at them over the fan, leatherface asked in a loud voice from right next to me Have you served this lady? obviously meant to let me know she had me in her sights. Dumbfounded, I left the cameras, made my purchase and went on my way. I have never been made to feel so awkward in a shop before! Did she really have nothing better to do? Perhaps she should leave the shop keeping to the other, much nicer ladies that looked embarresses at her behavior. Maybe she was a retired headmistress that missed her job! Either way, the PDSA are going to get a letter. I have a direct debit giving them a little every month because as an impoverished student, they glued my dog back together on numerous occasions and I believe I owe them. Grrrr to leathery bored housewives with dogs bottoms for mouths and pink lipstick. Now I have vented, I should stop going over it.
