Re: Woolworth's
Although it was originally an American company, the art deco frontage of many Woolies has been part of the British High Street for a long time.


It will be a sad day for Accrington, if and when it closes.

There will never be another shop like Woolworths. A good hairdresser though.
That depends on how much you lost on the lottery before and after.
Very bad method of accounting!!

Re: Woolworth's
I agree. My doom and gloom probably helped it all along...........you didn't really have to explain the Spanish though.

Looks like the doors will close soon. The administrators are expected to announce a closing down sale tomorrow.
