Wierd...

I know things are going to hell right now, but bloody hell. Woolworths is closing down!

They've been struggling for years, that's no secret. They're not the cheapest store around, and the stock available at the store on Albany Rd has been getting progressively worse, but still! I can't quite get my head around it.

What the hell's gonna happen to Albany Rd, now the only decent general goods store is on its way out?

Everything pretty much sucks in general. It's worst for the employees, of course. I don't suppose the people at the top are going to suffer at all, they never do.

No. No, they never do. I dread to think what's going to be replacing it.

My sister-in-law has just posted and reminded us that Woolworths own EUK - the DVD/CD suppliers - who my brother works for.

Oh. My. God ...

I'm going to bed. If the world gets any more bloody awful, I might just stay there.

Wow. I vaguely remember my grandmother taking me to a Woolworths when I was wee. They had a soda fountain where I would get a Dr. Pepper with a paper straw. A PAPER straw!!

I remember the damn thing would come undone before I was finished drinking my soda.
