Word reaches the bitternepark.info news centre that a new hairdressing salon could be on its way to Bitterne Park Triangle, between Andy's Fish Bar and Creative Flowers, in what was previously a Polish shop. Meanwhile a toy shop is also on the cards for Triangle shoppers - who might also soon see some evening opening at newly-licensed cafe Il Picchio.
Just along Manor Farm Road, Southampton Sewing Centre , which opened last June in the premises previously occupied by Parnell's and, before that, beauty salon Divine is now closed for business. A sign in the window says a mobile repair service will still operate, and gives a number to arrange collection of any machines currently held.
