the high street is dead

[HANDSOME_DAN]

or is it?

i was bored at the weekend so had a drive around grangetown and the sea road area and some shops have queues out the door.

sell a quality product at the right price and people will lap it up. the internet is handy for books and insurance quotes but thats about it.

Ha'way the shops.

Best thing about the internet is not having to waste your time shopping.

And titties.

Glad that's sorted then.

Leisure is the future of "shops" now

t'internet has its moments Drunk purchases

 

[look out piano]

I signed up to Amazon Prime recently, I get Asda orders delivered, the only shops I spend cash in are mid week food shops like Heron for bargains, and Charity shops for my occasional purchases of tat.

Aye was quite surprised when I was there at the weekend, seemed like every other shop on the bank was empty.

I remember a bunch of us lads went to London after our O levels and once as we were riding around in a bus one of the lads goes ‘this city is just like a million Hylton Roads!’
