The Phone Guys new shop in Nailsea is getting ready to open.

The store will be between what was the Turkish Coffee Corner now more of a Corner Café and Joi unisex hairdressers in the unit briefly occupied by the vape shop at 10a Colliers Walk.

The Phone Guys say in its Google business entry we 'are a community focused mobile phone shop. We provide mobile phone and tech repairs. We also retail brand new mobile phones as well as preowned phones, that come with a warranty. The Phone Guys Nailsea also buy phones and offer a wide range of high-quality accessories.

The company also has (had?) shops in Weston and Burnham, pictured, run by boss Wayne Mcquistin.

The original plan was to open at the end of July at same time the new library opened and before the Impero Lounge arrived but both this shop and the lounge got delayed.

In the meantime, our new fish shops at Station Road and antique emporium at Quality Collectibles appear to be really busy.

Sadly, Home Additions on the corner of High Street and Link Road which is set to close in February has a For Sale notice outside.

Owner Alan Goddard is retiring and his son is going to run the Clevedon Emporium which welcomes shoppers from all over North Somerset and beyond.

Agent Ian Thompson said: “As the structure and services are shared with the flats above, it's what most call a “virtual freehold”, is really a very long, 125year lease at a very low ‘rent’ of £250 per year fixed for the entire term, plus a share of the costs of maintaining the overall building, which can vary yearly depending on what’s needed to be spent.

“Unfortunately, a lot of people don't understand the form of tenure, but it's the format most flats are sold on.

“If one owns one’s house or shop for that matter, you must do all your own repairs and maintenance.

“But in a shared building the management company does all the external and shared works, recouped shared among all the owners, with the occupier responsible for his own interior, plus windows and doors and the like.

“It is also the same basis as the library took the long lease of its new premises bought from Praxis.

“So, while it's a ‘rent’ it is really a ground rent, rather than a market rent which might go up every five years.

“In the case of the Home Additions shop it is in fact originally designed as two shops which were at some point knocked together, so a buyer could replace the wall, occupy one themselves and let the other for an income as an investment, or an investor could buy and let both and increase the potential income.

“It has a shop door at one end, which Alan uses as his front door and another on the corner which he doesn’t but could be brought back into use.

“It has a lot of flexibility; it just depends on what someone wants to use it for and how much space they need.”
