I do most of my shopping online, so perhaps I am the cause of the decline of the High Street, but as I said previously, I have never likes shopping as a leisure activity. The High Street as we know it has been failing for a long time, pre-Brexit, pre-Covid. I do not use Amazon for everything either; most shops which are on the ball offer an online service, John Lewis, Next, M&S etc., plus many small retailers which is my usual choice. I prefer to try on clothing at home, instead of a smelly changing room, and then either keep or return the items. I do click and collect if the postage will be too much, and my local independent book shop offers this service. Frankly, lock down or not, I prefer to do my shopping on my laptop in the comfort of my own home. Debenhams has long been failing; neither cheap enough to compete with the pile it high stores, or expensive and luxury enough to be a treat to visit. Phillip Green and Mike Ashley are to me symbols of the vulgar, greedy philosophy started by Thatcher and are not people to be admired or applauded and certainly not given knighthoods. I shall not miss their contribution to retail, but feel heart sore for those who have lost their jobs in this time of approaching exceedingly high unemployment.
