    Not Tchibo surely? Blimey, they haven't been there that long, been in a few times but the coffee smell has me out again pretty darn quick.

    You are right, the high street is going to look pretty empty very quickly at this rate.
    The only time I've seen Tschibo is they have an area in Somerfield where they sell "other random things", a display containing computer keyboards, gloves, smellies and a whole host of odd/random items.

    My understanding of retail is that firms usually make the December rent but go bust in January when they have to pay VAT/stock.

    I'm sure fc123 will be along to put me right at some point however.

    Happy New Year pickles and fc123 BTW.

    Happy New Year to you too my anal-dwelling friend :D

    I did get bored and I went away, I came back and got bored again. I'm still bored and given the choice between spending the eveing at the pub or shooting the breeze with you I spent the evening at the pub ;)

    So what's the inside knowledge on the docks then Pickels mate? Any ships come in yet or are you all sitting around playing tiddlywinks? :j
