Hello all I'm getting tired of having to go all the way up to the A10 roundabout for a burger (well actually more of a sausage and egg McMuffin). Anyone else feel that we should petition Mac D's to open back up in town? I would be good for jobs and would give the local kids somewhere to congregate rather than just here and there an although I can appreciate that some people think their bad, the more money that's flowing through the town centre the better. I'd really like a Burger King (superior food), but I can't see that happening. The DB

It is a bit too early for April's Fool day. I'm serious. I would like a MDs in town. I don't see what people have against them. They don't force people to go there and get fat and they employ people. Also, like a bit of a dirty burger now and then, sorry. And Subways is seriously rough. The DB

I'm afraid you've really hit the wrong forum to suggest such a thing! However, they've been here, it didnt work. what makes you think it would work now? nothing has changed. Dont give up though - the people on here are far from representative of typical hertford folk. Just find a different place to start your campaign!

Codek2 Thank you for the first decent reply. All, what is the point in having a forum made up of people who all think that same and all agree with each other? I think this is the ideal place to get a debate up, where else can I go to talk to people who live in Hertford and take a real interest so easily? I think it's the snobbish attitudes evident in this post that drove MDs out of town. Does it affect all of your middle class sensibilities? Do you find large numbers of 'chavs' enjoying themselves disturbing? Or is the thought of 'those people' having a nice big Tesco and MD to keep them happy too much for you all? BRING BACK BIG MACS TO HERTFORD TOWN CENTRE! The DB

Closing Maidenhead St branch of MD was a business decision taken by the franchise holder as it was not as profitable as the A10 franchise, which he also owns. If a successful businessman (ie: still bringing in money) makes the decision to close one of his own branches, I'd be surprised if anyone else would try and open a new franchise (how much do these cost for MD? £100k?) in a spot where it has already failed. Subway's mission is to open as close to their oppo as possible, hence their location. Personally, I wouldn't feed my cats MD food as it is IMHO plastic and horrible.

I would like to see some fast-food place open in town to provide competition to subway. I had some firends visit on Thursday night for a charity quiz we ran at Elberts. They had come up on the train from South London and were starving when I picked them up at the station. She really wanted a burger (no arguing with a pregnant woman!) but the only place she could go was Wetherspoons, as she obviously wanted to sit and eat. It would make perfect sense for a fast-food chain to open in the old Maccy D's building. Lets face it, nothing else is in there and has been for quite some time.

The Maidenhead Street McDonalds was ok if you happened to be out and about in the town for a period long enough to get hungry, or maybe local working people's lunch breaks etc., but if you just want to quickly pop out to get yourself or the kids something, it's not as attractive as the one on the A10 as there's nowhere to park nearby. I can't believe that Hertford town centre attracts people who go shopping for long periods at a time, or come very far (from home) to do it, I think most shoppers would just wait until they got home or go somewhere else. Maybe the place is busy with kids on a Saturday, but I never saw it very busy on weekday mornings and afternoons, or any evenings. If that's so then I'm not surprised it wouldn't be profitable. I wouldn't at all interested in McDonalds returning to the town, not in the previous location anyway. At least one can walk up and down Maidenhead Street these days without having to constantly look over one's shoulder for cars coming from either direction, parking up and blocking the path, and even access to ATMs.

You are all missing the point. The fact is that Hertford's a second rate town without a central McDonald's. All the other places I go on a regular basis, Nuneaton, Wroxham and North Finchley all have MDs and are better places than Hertford for it. Hertford is behind the times. You all think it's quaint with local shops (that VASTLY overcharge for their products - details upon request)but the reality is it's boring and doesn't provide a full shopping experience. I mean, go to the Stonehouse for a bugger? Does that mean I also have to put on a mini skirt and freeze my bony ass off shivering outside to get in then leave with chlamydia, just for a burger? Some of you have got it right that MDs is good for a dirty bugger but most of you are just plain wrong. Trying to deflect the snottiness that rules here with a 'joke' concerning grammar is just typical wrapped up in your own existence and happy little forum behaviour. There is nothing wrong with Tesco. If you shop at Waitrose you pay through the nose so you can feel a bit superior, go on deny it, look deep inside, you know it's true. But your getting buttf**ked for the pleasure by Waitrose who take your money and would be just like Tesco if they were top of the pile. I am not this RGsrick person. I am The DB and I rule. You are all weak and I bet if MDs did open you wouldn't be able to resist the filth. The DB

The DB is back on to settle the matter. Okay re overcharging. Now, you may find this strange but I don't want to cause the shop that I think overcharges trouble so I will try and be subtle: About a year ago I went into our MD-less town centre to purchase a lens from a certain shop. Now, I had been on-line and seen the prices for the the lens I wanted but thought; I'm going to support local business and see what town can do, I don't mind paying a bit extra for face to face service and peace of mind. In the shop I asked how much the lens was. I was told a price £80 over the cost of the (reputable internet (some purely internet, others with physical shops as well) stores)). I said (very politely and not at all in a presumptive manner) that I appreciate they could not match the internet prices but was there anything they could do. I was told that that was the final price and they lost the £300-£400 that was burning a hole in my pocket. Now, I really wanted to buy the lens from them, really wanted to have a good relationship with my local shop and buy all my gear (which is a steadily growing pile of expensive kit) from them. I would have been happy with £10 off the price as a gesture to our possible relationship. I walked out of the shop and the times I have been back have been constantly shocked by their prices. I went over to WGC and got the lens from a shop for £30 above the internet price. Don't even tell me there wasn't any wiggle room. Case closed, The DB has spoken. Wallop.

This topic has aroused strong feelings on both sides of the debate, and I think it's important we get things in perspective. What we see here are the opening salvos of the final battle for the soul of our little town. Parallels with the Book of Revelation, or with the slow but inevitable collapse of Rome in the face of the Barbarian onslaught might be overstating it. But you see my point. The lines are being drawn. On one side we have this D8 creature and his allies, probably hooded, almost certainly drunk on Tesco Value lager and, if they get their way, clutching a half-eaten bacon double-cheeseburger (the wrapper for which has long been cast away on the pavement outside Woolworth). Facing them are the others, neatly dressed, quietly determined, and knowing the importance of grammar and a healthy diet, a jar of Waitrose pickled cabbage by their sides. It's time to take sides everyone.

I've yet to go to Woolworth. I am neatly dressed, only have the occasional burger (but want one in town when I'm out shopping), fit, trim, healthy and dare I say it good in bed. I also like sauerkraut which isn't too far removed from your overpriced Waitrose pickled cabbage tat. However you are correct that it's time to take sides.

You guys were missing the point in my earlier post about friends wanting a burger on THURSDAY night (an therefore ruling out the Bull Plain van, if it's only there on Fri/Sat night). I know there are loads of places to get a burger in town, most, if not all of them better than Wetherspoons. But, I bet none of them can go from ordering to serving as quick as Wetherspoons, which was the whole point of wanting a fast food outlet with seating.
