00:00Right, so I came down to Lidl here, I woke up at 7 in the morning, because I genuinely
00:12love Lidl, the price is really good, and I also love the bakery stuff as well, and yeah.
00:19Which branch would you normally go to?
00:21The one in Shorley.
00:22Alright, and is this one much closer for you?
00:25Yeah, definitely.
00:26And have you been watching it be built?
00:28Yeah, I've been watching it being built, I go and pass, I do the BMX racing up the road,
00:33and I've gone past it and watched it being built, it's obviously been great.
00:38And do you just want to say that you're one of the first ones that's been in the store?
00:41Yeah.
00:42Right, morning everybody, it's been a pleasure opening this store, thanks for bearing with
00:47us, I know there's been a lot of workmen and things like that going on, I know it's nice
00:52and cold out here and warm for you, so we will get you in the store as quickly as possible,
00:56but I'd like to say thank you very much to everybody that's helped us do this rebuild
01:02and it looks fantastic.
01:04So when you come inside the store, you'll be surprised at what you see.
01:07So I'd like to hand over to Esme here, who's going to help you navigate into the store.
01:40Hello, I'm Geoff Cooper-Dwight, County Councillor for Lostacole and Bamber Bridge, at the brand
01:47new Lidl, fantastic new Lidl on the Colsey, which will be fantastic for my local residents
01:54of Lostacole and Bamber Bridge, mainly due to the convenience of it, right on the main
01:59road, and this is the...
02:02And I'm Joan Burroughs, I'm the County Councillor for Pembroke-on-the-Beast and Monkley Dales
02:07and my comments this morning are, what a great store, and it's going to be great for people
02:13to come in, yes in my division, but I bet they get a lot of people to come in from far
02:17and field, done a great job.
02:19I've just been in the store, as you can see behind me, and a couple of quick thoughts,
02:24it is so much nicer than the nearest one, which is in Strand Road in Preston, so much
02:30nicer, the lighting isn't clinical and cool, it's nice and warm, there's a bakery as soon
02:36as you walk in with the fresh fruit, and then the fridges are towards the back and the sides,
02:43everything is, of course it's brand new so it's going to be nice, but everything is laid
02:47out nicely, it's just a much, much nicer shopping experience than other Lidl's I've been in
02:55in the past, and it's really, really busy, it's been open now for half an hour, there
03:00was a little glitch on the till that I've been through, the weighing scales weren't
03:05working properly, but yeah, it's well worth a visit if you live in this local area.
