And can't believe I forgot my fave shop of all...........Kost Koncious, with our favourite ex-mayor Javid (think he's an ex-mayor, but don't know whether we had another election or if we declared it a lifetime appointment

)

Woodwares is the biz. Excellent service and you are in and out before you can say B&Q car park. I also really like having a coffee, snack and read of the paper in Kitchener's, although I must admit some days I am left tearing my hair out in there.

Kost Konscious - the nicest shopkeepers ever ... and they stock my favourite red wine

La Vie en Rose - great variety unusual gifts and very pleasant owner.

Kitcheners - good deli selection and try before you buy plates.

Findlays - best steak pie ever.

I think Javid must still be the Mayor. Don't recall another election. Maybe it's time for a Cabinet reshuffle

(does he know he's still mayor?)
