    Having written extensively about businesses in Harborne that you should either check out (or avoid)…read moreI felt it only fair to devote a few words to that thorniest of thorny topics - for car drivers of the region at least - car parking in the High Street. Now, its probably worth noting here that I am a passionate bus goer and proud owner of a monthly bus-pass so car parking is never that much of an issue to me - unless of course I'm being driven around and then it becomes a little more pertinent (I'm off on a tangent here but if you're planing on driving to Bridgnorth all I can say is DON'T - they have naff all in terms of car-parking spaces and the hunt for one will drive you completely mad) but I know from friends and also from reading the Harborne Society Newsletter this is very much a concern. In no particular order then, here are places you might want to leave your car: a) the car-park behind Sainsbury's - for two pounds you can stay for up to 4 hours. If you can find a space - this is a popular choice b) the car-park behind Home Bargains (by Harborne Medical practise) - all day parking costs 3.30 although you will have to walk past the stinky public toilets to get back into the car park c) the car-park by Marks - also 3.30 for the day but usually packed with people loading up their shopping d) the car-park in Waitrose - free but only for use by Waitrose customers. Staff do check and you will be fined if you stay longer than an hour e) the car-parks by the Green Man and The Old Proverbial - again for use by customers only but both pretty spacious and secure Or you could attempt to park in one of the residential streets - not a chance at weekends of being able to get anywhere near the the High Street I'm afraid or do as I do and leave the car at home and jump on a 22,23,24,29,636 or 448 instead - all of which serve the High Street and with the exception of the 636 (which is actually the bane of my life) all pretty reliable. Failing that there is a taxi rank just by Zizzi at the top end of the High Street which is served by TOA.

    The One Stop seems to get a bad rep, but it serves it's purpose and offers a range of shops and…read moreservices in one convenient place in Perry Barr. I have used One Stop for various bits and pieces since I first moved to Birmingham in 2003. Being an ex UCE (now BCU) student, it was just over the road from my Uni and close to my student accommodation; meaning I could do all my weekly shopping in one place (without having to lug it back to somewhere too far away). One Stop has it's own car park, but it does get very busy on Saturday's. You get three hours free parking; which gives you plenty of time to pop to the shops and get out before going over. As well as your chain shops (such as Asda, Boots and Rymans), there is a small selection of Independent stores including a butcher (that sells goat and mutton), a florist and various clothing stores and market stalls. There is a good amount of discount stores, so you can grab your weekly shop at the supermarket and then grab some "bits and pieces" from Heron Foods, Poundland and Bodycare. There is a particularly good Mark and Spencer's outlet store which I have been able to get jeans for £4 and great bargains in the large clearance section at the back (to the left hand side). One Stop isn't glitzy, but it is a good place to head to if you need your weekly shop or just grab a few bits and pieces. As a top tip; get down there early on the weekends to get a parking space.

    The One Stop Centre is located out by Perry Barr train Station and the University campus and before…read moreanyone slates the place, I would ask; what would you do without it?! Let's face it Perry Barr isn't famed with being exactly a crowd puller and One Shop offers a little glamour to one of Birminghams more neglected parts of town. Afterall you can't fight the joy of the shopping centre experience of being penned in on all sides by familair high street stores and One Stop has them in abundance. There's an Argos, numerous phoneshops, a KFC and a Burger King! If you after something a little more healthy there's also a Holland & Barretts! One Stop is a modern shopping centre that adds a little sophistication to the surrounding area. It also serves a good place to meet, something of a landmark, One Stop it might be but it's also worth a second look!
