Just to ge back on track of the thread, I walked past Faith (ladies shoe shop) in Viccy Square today, and it is having a closing down sale.

So from Viccy Square that Zavvi, Faith and the candle/homeware shop that was downstairs (no idea what it was called) all shut/shutting down.

On a brighter note there are posters saying it is the Squares 1st anniversary next week. 3 shops gone before the year is up. Could soon be a dome full of f-all.

All the roast coffee shops in Belfast were originally owned by the Presbyterian Church in Ireland.

I'm not entirely sure this is correct. I remember reading that they were owned by a church group of some description, but I don't think it was PCI.

I'm happy to be proved wrong though.

Apparently Dorothy Perkins in Carrick is closing on Saturday 7th. Today they have up buy one get one free offers, I think on everything. Carrick is getting worse - there's very little there.

IIRC it got planning permission last year for it to be knocked down and rebuilt. Haven't seen anything more about it since then though.
