[Cue]

Argos on the Hough closes on July 6th...

Great, now I have to carry cash to collect from Argos because the council are stuck in a different time period

When i've had to use (the small) argos I've parked by the windmill. It's free and gives you just enough time to get to argos and back.

With customer loyalty like that it's no wonder they're selling up...

I'm not convinced another garage will want to move into that spot - my bet in the medium term in another retirement block/complex.

It does have its own special right-turn lane, heading out of town, not that anybody ever uses it.

I'd love the car showroom on the Victoria Park side to be incorporated into the park, however I suspect that dream will never happen!

Waste of time moving over tbh and paying to do the place up. Seems a silly idea all round.

It survived OK at the last place?

Clearly this new place probably isn't as favourable, and it would be interesting to see how much of their passing trade came from the college.

As far as I am aware it is owned by the guy who owns Elements.

That's a shame but I will say I tried to go there once when they were at the old location and there were no staff visible. Maybe it was the wrong time of day but I just didn't bother after that. I did look in the window of it in its new location and contemplate going in at some point. Too late!

On my daily walk around town a week or so ago I walked past the place and saw a chap dozing on a sofa by one of the windows....

"Behind every person now alive stand thirty two ghosts, for that is the ratio by which the dead outnumber the living. Since the dawn of time, roughly a hundred billion human beings have walked the planet Earth."​
