any sport stores nearby?


About two
I found supermarket wise if I was doing a big shop on my own I'd walk to Sainsburys; if someone I knew was doing a run to asda by car I'd quickly invite myself, lol. I'd do small shops in the tesco in the city centre.

ok so the walk to the nearest supermarket is how long on average?
depends where you live! Elliott to Sainsburys is probably around 20/25 minutes? i haven't really timed it!

JJbs or whatever its called. There was Blacks/ Millets and theres Fat face etc. I know they dont necessarily count as sports shops although I think the JJBs place does sell shuttlecocks and stuff. Somewhere sells proper rackets and football boots and hockey sticks and stuff, I know this because I bought some tennis rackets there 5 years ago, dont know if its still open though. You can always buy really specialist stuff online :smile:
sports wold also on sturry road sells sports equipment and clothes, some of the clothes there do however leave a lot to be desired
