Courts

Just heard that Courts went into administration yesterday with debts of £280 million. It looks very likely that they will cease trading today. Whilst this is very sad news for all whom work for them, it could be an opportunity to get some cheaper furniture today.

Courts' administrators, KPMG, say they want to reopen but must protect staff."
