"we already have far too many discount shops and need a bit of quality.  "

Stop shopping in them then!!! Supplying and demand dictates them staying around!!

I can honestly say that I have never shopped in the pound shops. Went in once to have a look and although things like mugs, washing up bowls etc very useful items and great for just a pound, a town the size of Accy does not need more than one of these places. ;D

I'd definitely agree with that. we desperately need a decent shoe shop.
My youngest two are 13 years old, and size 11 shoes are getting too small. Trying to find something suitable for their age in that size, at a reasonable price is murder. Probably end up going to winfields again!

Think I'll be looking for an Outsize shoe shop soon! ;D

Miks contribution was that it was on the observer website.. It wasn't.  Read the thread

Can we get Richard Branson to step in and save it?

Mick · 19-09-2003, 14:40

Tealeaf · 19-09-2003, 15:01

So i was correct however on reflection it could have been in the Telegraph web site i saw it written.However it was on this website that i read it using the links provided by Roy.Thank you Janet but there was no need to apologise.After the last week and the advice i have received from all and Sundry i am trying to be very careful as to what i write and where i write it :-[

As to shoes what ever happenned to Winfields up Haslingden.Only an observation.

Re: Telegraph/Observer websites.

OK folks - lets put this matter to rest. I picked this up from the Tele site on Wednesday afternoon. There was no mention whatsoever on the Observer one, simply because it had not been updated from last week - the last update appears to have been about monday 7th Sept and they finally managed to update either yesterday afternoon or this morning.

The problem is not who saw what, where and when: but due to some big time miscalculation, there is at this moment no Piccy House in Accy (so no one can see anything)  And someone need to answer for that. I suggest we bring in Lord Hutton to find out what happened & who was responsible.

Remember, the Hyndburn Council Tax payer has a one third share in the building of that £2.5m complex....was the original business case sexed up?
