Not sure if it will be better in new shop but at least it is under one roof & he might make money selling his other 2 sites but there are lots of empty shops so won't hold my breath. Should have retired & sold his stock at car boot sales. From the outside it's never exactly looked like the most welcoming of places.

That's going to be a big blow for Perth - I'd think it must be the largest store on the High Street at the moment, and in such a prominent location too. TBH I think this has been coming for Debenhams for a long time - they sell some nice stuff but a lot of it's crazily over-priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
