Re: Peacocks closing
It's only a few weeks ago that Lens was advertising for a staff vacancy, wonder what happened, it is a shame, it's the only stall other than Trickets that i remember being there when i was a kid

Yeah. Sadly it was on the news, both Peacocks and Bon Marche are going into administration.

There's a slight hope they could survive, but the chances are slim.

According to my sources it's not part of Maundy Village, they think it's something to do with a church. Does seem strange that somebody else should be allowed to set up in the village, maybe there will be riots
