    Talking more shops

    another four shops may get built in wick, 1 is suppose to be a garden center, wonder what the other 3 will be ????????
    hope 1 is in compition with homebase as the prices never seem to stop going up, 1 tube of silicon £7.50, Rob at the mill sells it £2, 1 tub ready mix filler 5kg at home base £25.00 the mill £18.00 for 20kg
    a decent DIY center would be nice

    burger king would be great !!

    heard that they do plan along with matalan jjb and dobbies garden centre maybe,

    but like i said only heard this.

    What local shop would be able to go up there?

    unfortunately there is not many and they are not very appealing compaired to the giants.

    would also mean that they would have to stay open at linch times and on sundays, maybe even late nights.

    Be more likely the rent etc for a unit that would put them off.

    Please, no fast food. It's a depressing sight walking around Scotland's cities seeing overweight people munching down on processed meat.
    Say what?

    Yes please to fast food. Eating too much of it is a personal choice and to be honest can be eaten and made at home.Hope we get something as we have way too many chinese and you cant get chips after 8pm in Wick which is shameful!!!

    Sound brilliant - where did you get your info? Hope it's correct. I think we really need Matalan up here and Next is great - especially the half price sales!

    If it was my choice and this is wishful thinking, I would like Primark, Next, M & S & B & Q.

    B&Q would be great. I think we drew the short straw to get Homebase - the choice is so limited and expensive.

    I will get shot down in flames but if I had a choice it would be...diechman shoes,brantano,la senza and next oh! if there's still space, a matalan would be good too x
    The nice thing about living in a small place is that if you dont know what you are doing....there's always somebody who does,or thinks they do! x
