Re: The Very Official McDonalds (and other fast food outlets) Thread

I agree with these thoughts. It seems delivery drivers get priority, as there are presumably targets to be met, drive thru is second, as if the queue gets too long it backs out onto the road and disrupts the flow of traffic A distant third place priority seems to be people who have been the least la...

Re: The Unofficial Sainsbury's Thread

There was a proper branded poster in my store detailing the information The only issue seemed to be no smartshop and no contactless, but chip and pin was working I also notice there is no record in my bank app of any transaction, so I’m guessing the transactions may only exist within Sainsburys inte...

Re: Another High Street Rebrand

If they’ve got money available to spend on their stores, I think it would have been preferable to spend it in literally any other way than changing the sign outside

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

It’ll be a big loss if it does close entirely. I never fully trust the quality or how consistent the range will be at the likes of Poundland or B&M. I’m not entirely sure being squeezed out by online is as much of an issue as the commentators on the news keep saying. Surely people tend to buy th...

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

Not a high street retailer, but I imagine they delivered to many of them I was reading on another forum, that Eddie Stobart as a brand is pretty much dead They were acquired by the ‘Culina Group’ in the last few years and the new owners are prioritising their brand over the Stobart brand, rebranding...

Re: Emergency alerts

Lets hope they don't use it as often as the BBC send out breaking news alerts It will be interesting how it works, as for example my council area often has flooding following period of heavy rain, but in reality it only effects a small percentage of people who live in the valley bottom. Would they s...

Re: Pres Cafe Watch News and Information Board

I'm not saying the new forums are a bit dead, but the first non-news bulletin use of the new Studio B set (Our Next Prime Minister) hasn't raised a comment on either. I'd like to join one of the forums, but this deadness is keeping me away - too few active members and it becomes hard to have a conv...

Re: TV Talk Forum Watch News and Information Board

The opening post in the ITV News thread is strangely worded don’t you think This thread is for discussing the current breaking news from ITV News, but also for news of any presenter or correspondent either leaving, or making their ITV News debut. Do bare in mind with the latter that if they have pre...
