Re: Ethel Austins gone into administration

You not read what BBC have reported?? Might be worthwhile and then at least you can question it if they tell you different at work tomorrow. There are times where a company doesnt tell the workers until they have too, and this time is generally when it reaches the media in one way or another

I hope you are right Yol, but it doesn't usually work that way, my branch of Music Zone made a hefty profit and still got closed. It's the company as a whole that counts.

Re: Ethel Austins gone into administration

I dont think the how the individual shops do matters. If the Company as whole is losing money, not paying suppliers etc, then its worrying news

Hope its good news for you tomorrow Yolanda, hopefully there may be interest from other companies to buy the company out
