Anyone heard about what's going on with the vacant shops in the retail park?? I got in touch with Mothercare the other day to see if they would consider opening a shop this far North...but got only a lukewarm response.

Perhaps the shops are waiting to see what happens when all the new houses are built across the way![smirk] :eek:

If that was true I'd be very happy, since the music shops in wick and thurso closed I've been doing a lot of online shopping which I must say is not my cup of tea, too impersonal, plus I love to browse.

I think a good idea would be a play place for young kids. Something where parents and kids could participate together in a range of activities such as arts/crafts, energetic play (soft mats, balls, climbing etc), music, books etc.

I agree, however this has been tried twice in Inverness and Dornoch. Both folded, not sure if this was because of lack of use or insurance costs.

Why not a Next or even better a discount 'Next To Nothing?'- that would make sense

i would love Farmfoods to come to wick, such variety and cheap prices, even the well known brands of frozen food are so much cheaper;the cakes, cereals,soft drinks, so much and such good value.

we desperately need a children's/teen's clothes shop at decent prices - particularly more choice for boys. Mackays only go up to about 10 yr old then it's into men's sizes, which isn't much good for the age group in between.
