At least two years! I've been working in that co-op since November 2003 and it was there when I started. They've still got the "closing down sale" signs in the window at All:Sports so it's nothing imminent.

I'm sure Ethel Austin has been there for a lot longer than a year. I think the 2005 retailer demand showed they wanted a larger store, some retailers in Kingdom Centre are looking to expand. They should really put the BHS, Debenhams or TJ Hughes where they propoose Tesco at North Street. More so Debenhams or TJ Hughes, im not so fussed for BHS. Then let Tesco be built at the tullis russell site?
