It's much less relevant to the forum - he's not been on screens much for the past few years, so there's no immediate implications for any TV channel.

Re: Pres Cafe Watch News and Information Board

I notice that there's been discussion over changes to the edit window on posts.

I presume someone has been editing their posts to say "anyone who replies to this post is a massive bumhole", or similar. Does anyone know what was going on?

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

The Range is overpriced and full of absolute tut. Wilko wasn't immune to 'live laugh love'-level shite but until the end of their life were always decent on price. Must say I always thought I was the only the person who thought that about The Range. I've never really seen any point to go to the pla...

Re: Pres Cafe Watch News and Information Board

I note that "Rue de Wakening", who has been known by many other pun names, is now Former Member 406 (presumably in reference to the User ID rather than 405 other members leaving).

Indeed, I think I'm right in saying that nobody else has left and become a Former Member on Pres Café.

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

It seems to be B&M, The Range, Home Bargains, and Poundland who are interested, but only one of them would be interested in keeping the name.

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake

I like Wilko for the same reason I like AmazonBasics stuff - generic stuff, but you at least there's a level of quality control you might not get elsewhere (particularly with the stuff with the random jumble of letters that's cluttering Amazon these days) That's where Wilko excelled - I got a nylon...

Have you ever seen a big one? If you do, give it a go, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

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 t...
