Mrs Palm's Adult Shop in Truro Gains New Licence

Has anyone walked around Truro recently looking at the shops - or absence of them? I was shocked earlier this summer at how wretched and ragged a lot of the city looks now. I'd rather see a black frilly basque in a window and know that people are employed and rents and rates being paid in a legal business than see dustsheets and yet another "for sale" or "to let" sign that's helping nobody. The churches - especially the Catholic church - should worry less about what consenting adults do with their sex lives (given their record on consent and child abuse, they're in no place to look down on anyone) and more about the problems they face outside the bedroom. Those fighting against this would have done better with the money they spent buying a huge load of groceries and putting it in the collection crates in the supermarkets. Good luck to Nikki and her team.

My partner and I find the shop very classy not at all "tacky" and it is discreetly set out. Impressed! :-)

Since Nicky would find it very difficult to advertise in our local press and, apart from causing her massive amounts of stress, I would say the Christian group has probably done her a huge favour in letting everyone know where her shop is (Little Castle Street) and what it sells (personal products for ADULTS!!) I am disgusted by the thought that the religious group(s) that were objecting to this retail establishment possibly funded their legal battles with money donated to them which could have had a far more practical and beneficial use to the commumity.
