- Next door to the black shutters of the Spice Lounge is another business which favours a black frontage, though with silver signage to present itself to the world. Kute Cutz also have a sign over the shop saying ACE Barbers and Beauty salon. There are actually four different phone numbers provided for potential customers to phone - 07910 876162,... more

- At 65 St James's Street, round the corner from the other fast food joints near the station is the shell of a business which has gone on to greater and better things at the top of the High Street. Perfect Fried Chicken has not had an easy time of it there, what with Clyde Loakes, leader of the council, singling it out for one of his periodic... more

- Lolek is one of the Polish shops which have graced the locality in recent years, bringing the flavours of East and Central Europe along with Baltika, Tradicia, St James Supermarket, ASDA and Faris's Supermarket to the many newcomers who have joined us in Walthamstow. There is another, longer established Polski Sklep just off the High Street.... more

- On the door of 56 St James's Street, the sign says Michael Bell. The door also has a reassuring sticker promoting the World Wildlife Fund with a panda and the slogan 'I'm taking action for a living planet'. I am not sure what action a Walthamstow bookkeeper can take for a living planet, at least in St James's Street as there is precious little... more

- Spice Lounge, on the site of Khan's Restaurant, at 54 St James Street, has a slightly shabby and forbidding black frontage. The mood continues with a rather bitter post about it on the internet by someone saying that their credit card was abused when they had ordered take-away from this establishment. This post has been repeated on a couple of... more

- I have criticized the other bookmakers in the area for the way they have put the hooks into the local economy and are sucking as hard as they can to hoover out the locals' cash. We get very little back, even from the government which is also sucking away through the Tote. I will not make an exception with Ladbrokes, who have decided they need to... more

- On the opposite corner of the cul-de-sac which is Grange Road, the Pal Audio Visual Centre (Tel 0208 521 8914) has a frontage that screeches its ugliness to the street. No space is too small to be left uncluttered with the consumerist branding and language of trade: Panasonic, Pioneer, Hitachi, Akai, Sharp, Ferguson, Sony, Philips all have their... more

- Behind Elite Property Services at 46 St James's Street is a small grey pained lock-up with a shutter, AKA "The Workshop". I have only ever seen the shutters down. It is the home of Docklands Engineering Services. I have long learned not to take anything at face value where the technological and engineering prowess of local businesses is... more

- At the corner of St James's Street and the cul-de-sac which is all that is left of Grange Road after a housing estate was built there and then walled off from the rest of civilization, is number 46. The actual corner part of this building is taken up by Elite Property Services, a rental agency. Though the scruffy temporary sign currently... more

- At 42 St James's Street is another one of those businesses, like Adrian Irwin, whose flourishing trade is interesting to me. Alpha Radio, is a hardware store bwtween Mr Jacks and St James Supermarket. It specializes in audio visual equipment, electrical appliances and electronics, but stocks a whole range of those weird items we hardly ever... more
