Great Yorkshire Show 2011


Well the last 3 days have been very hectic at the Great Yorkshire Show, Harrogate. We had our stand in the usual place, opposite the England Rugby Union Store. The footfall was fantastic with many visitors stopping to have a chat about both buying and selling a business. On the Wednesday, Prince Charles & Camilla were in attendance and I saw them both watching the Show Jumping and also on the balcony of the hospitality suite.
Looking at the number of visitors, there can be no complaint that this was the best attended show so far.
There were many well known brands displaying and I managed to have a quick chat with the girls on the Yorkshire Post stand who seemed to be doing brisk business.

Richards Family Fisheries - Another recent sale


In early 2010, upon being made redundant, Barrie Richards contacted me and we met up and had a discussion about different types of businesses, price ranges etc. Barrie fancied running a fish & chips shop and I selected a number in the area and locations that were not to far for him to travel. Upon viewing some of the businesses he got an idea of what he required and also which businesses did not satisfy his requirements. One of the businesses he viewed, Websters Fisheries on Waterloo Road, Pudsey ticked every box and the same day Barrie made an offer which, after some negotiation, was accepted. After attending the Federation of Fish Friers training course, Barrie attended at the business and Mark Webster, the owner gave Barrie full 'hands on' training. Soon, Barrie was competent in all aspects of running the shop ie. cutting fish, rumbling potatoes and obviously frying. After completion, Barrie put his marketing skills into good use and not only produced fantastic fish & chips but also increased the already excellent turnover, partly down to rebranding the shop 'Richards Family Fisheries'. In October 2010, Barrie decided to sell the business and fancied buying a run down fish & chips shop to build up as he enjoys utilising his marketing skills. Yesterday, Barrie's Solicitors completed the sale of 'Richards Family Fisheries' and next week Barrie completes the purchase of Holywell Green Fisheries, Halifax which no doubt will also be a roaring success - watch this space!

Nora Battys Cottage For Sale - Own a piece of TV history!



Nora Batty’s Cottage
Last of the Summer Wine.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire one of the most iconic TV houses and be the envy of millions of fans throughout the world. Nora Batty’s Cottage appeared in many episodes of the popular BBC TV series from 1973—2010 and Nora Batty was often seen sweeping the steps with her brush before swinging it at Compo which produced some very comical situations.

Tastefully decorated (as Nora Batty would approve) with many props from the show as well as signed photos of the cast & crew.

The 2 bedroomed cottage is nestled amongst other famous sites used in the series including Sids Café, The White Horse Pub, the steps that Compo ran up, Howard & Pearl’s house etc.

The property is now used as a successful holiday let and is popular with visitors from all over the world, especially American tourists who rave over the Last of the Summer Wine episodes that are shown there.

The present owner is selling the property for £180,000 and a new owner could continue the existing use a holiday lets or use it to live in themselves.

Also featured in the Yorkshire Post 16.4.11 and Huddersfield Examiner 19.4.11 and Daily Mail 27.4.11
