Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Ersan Video Corner

Hi all.

Has anyone else noticed how horrific the images are on a constant loop being beamed out of the windows of Ersan & Co opposite the Salisbury?

When it was first being refurbished, it was a mystery as to what it was going to be, then as the 'PERSONAL INJURY, 'ACCIDENT CLAIMS' and 'MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE' banners were unveiled it became clear that it is a ambulance chaser megamart.

So what right? These [sort of firms*] have to be based somewhere.

My gripe is that they show videos on a constant loop of all of the worst things which can happen. There is one video in particular which features an awful car accident where a car crosses into the oncoming lane and is obliterated by a truck. I have been in a couple of car accidents, and they are no joke, and it struck me that this is particularly inappropriate footage to be broadcasting to the general public 24 hours a day.

Also the monitors seem to be beaming these out at about a million lumens, they illuminate the whole street, thankfully my bedroom is not on the street side or I would need blackout curtains.

Who can I complain to? (Besides you lot...)

Well, it's not like the rest of Harringay is exactly beautiful either, so calling the Coliseum ugly is like the pot calling the proverbial kettle black ;)

I'm sure I'd feel the same in your position, Chris. I was merely commenting on your assertion that Ersan is the worst business that could have moved into the area and was suggesting that, from what I know, we could have ended up with many worse tenants.

Are Ersan creating other issues for the occupants of the Coliseum flats?

There are, but since these are issues mainly affecting Coliseum residents, I will keep that off HOL which is more about issues affecting the area in general.
