Literally went into administration just after we left shop, walked past 10minutes later, doors locked, staff inside and notic of administration being put up in window.
This is as well as, Woolworths, MKone, photo processing shop., looks like Adams will be following.....who will be next?
Just hope staff get their wages.

thanks - turns out they went into receivership and were then instantly rebought by tom hunter the previous owner - so probably just a scam to write off some debts - afterall its now fashionable to go bust if you own a retail store dont you know
