Peter Jarvis, Northgate said: “Jolly good, I was disappointed when HMW closed actually. What’s going to go into Debenhams?”

Jenny Hand, Copthorne said: “I hadn’t noticed that there was any. I know Specsavers have moved. I know H&M has closed. It would be nice to see a bit more. I know rents are very high.”

Jill Carter, Maidenbower said: “It’s great, I love hmv.”

Marion Williams, Southgate said: “That would be nice to see a Oriental Supermarket”
