Very sad indeed.
We still have a building on our high street with the sign saying 'woolworths'. It has never been taken on by any other retailer.
The high sreet and its jobs are sadly passing away.
What a stae.

nip to come..... er currys and get a new one

[shooty]

Its probably curry down the back of it. : )

[ummmm]

The administrators will decide what to keep, what to sell and what to put into administration. It might not be all doom and gloom just yet.

Hopefully they might be saved at the final hour, but with the internet shops not paying out for expensive retail units and high rates. Its not looking fab.

I still mourn the demise of Woolworths. They sold almost everything.

I feel sorry for all the staff who will loose their jobs before xmas how worrying it must be if you are the family breadwinner with a mortgage to pay.
