“Sorry but all my sympathy for the staff went after reading the article below in last weeks Sentinel, I do feel for their families with them being out of work at Christmas but anyone who acts in the manner described last week needs to take a good look at their own conduct in this season of good will.

“It is terribly sad for the staff, couldn't be a worse time to be losing your job but, until these stores do something about the prices they charge,or are forced to charge because of their overheads, they will continue to go under whilst Amazon and Ebay thrive.”
