I've had a search on Google and it turns out these Virgin Mobile concessions are being opened in Croydon, Leicester, Leeds, Tunbridge Wells, Birmingham, Coventry, York and Guildford. Another recent development at WHS has been this whole high shelving thing, presumably so they can get more stock in l...

Virgin Mobile @ WHSmith
I know this forum has a slight interest in retail goings-ons every now and then so this may be of interest. I was in the Leeds branch of WHSmith yesterday and noticed there is now a dedicated part of the store selling Virgin Mobiles, its all decorated just like it would be in a Virgin Megastore. Is ...

I'm after getting a new mobile phone shortly. My budget is a bit over £100 and it needs to be available on Pay as you Go. Anyone any recommendations on any of the latest models?

Flags on Cars
If your area is anything like West Yorks no doubt you will have noticed every other car now seems to be sporting an England flag. This seems to be a new craze which someone somewhere started and everyone is getting in on the act. It seems a bit previous though as Euro 2004 doesn't start until next w...

Re: Election - Postal Voting
Just how much hassle is all of this ? The ballot paper itself is straightforward enough, 10 candidates for the Euro Elections and just 2 for the Local Elections (yes the Tories have given up around here, so much for democracy :roll: ). It does seem to be a bit complicated. Oh and as well as the com...

I believe it's certainly the case on Central Trains and Midland Mainline that the trolley services are actually done by self employed people. Don't know if it's the same for other rail services. !! Yes they are. I used to feel sorry for them on Arriva Strike Days, as they'd still turn up and man th...

When Safeway, pre-takeover, invested so much in the modernisation of their stores and not that long ago operated huge TV advertising campaigns to raise the profile of their brand (remember the 'Harry and Sally' ads?), it seems a bit ridiculous to replace it with the comparatively obscure Morrisons ...
