I've recently had cause to look for some maternity clothes in Wick...so I went to Ethel Austin, M&Co, Jaques Vert, New Look and Tesco - all to no avail.
Whilst I realise that a maternity shop would probably not have enough custom to sustain it, I would've thought one of the chain stores would have a small selection.
Now I am forced to either go to Inverness or shop on the internet, neither of which is ideal given sizing and time constraints.
Have I discovered a niche in the market, a blatant disregard by companies to pregnant women in the far north or is there some little shop hiding away somewhere in Caithness that I am yet to come across? :confused
