If so, was it as busy as it would have been on Boxing Day and 27th December?
We're thinking of going tomorrow morning (intend to arrive at about 9.45am, just before it opens), but don't want to be stuck in traffic queues!

Remember its open to 10pm. I went last night at 7pm, parked right outside and it was a lot less busy (though still busy). If you're expecting to get any bargains in Next though forget it, all the menswear is gone. (though I suspect they will ship in more from surrounding stores.)0 -
We went on Boxing Day and oh boy we wish we hadn't bothered, wall to wall people and hell in the car park:eek:Panda on My Shoulder
If you can make it cheaper do so. If it's not reduced, in Primark, off ebay or free I can't have it :rotfl:0 -
We went to Boundary Mill at Colne yesterday. Gave it up as a bad job as absolutely heaving. Took 20 mins just to get OUT of the carpark.Illegitimi non carborundum.0

No.
I have also not been to Meadowhall at Sheffield either. Nor the Metro Centre at Gateshead when I come to think about it..............."Success is not to be measured by the position someone has reached in life, but the obstacles he has overcome while trying to succeed." Booker T. Washington

Poo you, Burnley Lad, I really sympathise! What on earth have you done wrong to suffer the TC?!?!
But in answer to your question, mate went yesterday (silly woman), said it was packed, heaving, long queues, yuk!*** Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly ***
If I don't reply to you, I haven't looked back at the thread.....PM me0 -
I went on Boxing Day and didn't think it was that bad. I got parked on the covered car park and I didn't arrive until about 11am. I don't think I lined up for more than about five minutes to pay for anything either. I did leave my baby at home though! Good move, as I don't think i'd have liked to negotiate Next and Monsoon with a pram.0
