Waterstones leaving historic shop (archive.today)
 

They will be moving into the abandoned Topshop building on Queen Street.

Part of the charm of Waterstones is that lovely old building they had. The old staircases and the little nooks dotted around. The children's section was particular enchanting when I was a kid too.

Another shop lost on Cornmarket.

An hourly train service connecting Bristol to Oxford could start next year if proposals are approved by the government.

The service would run every day, with stops at Bath Spa, Chippenham and Swindon.

That's it. Done with Amazon. in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Closed my 18 year old account last week and I don't miss it at all. I will shop local or buy direct from the brand.

Watched these via NTL in the late 90s. Some of these were also shown when there used to be kids TV before and after school. Good times.

Its a haircare brand. They only stock in the UK and USA I believe. I was going to purchase some to support Australia but then I looked into who owns it.. Its a bit misleading.

While its logo (along with a former advertisement mascot) is a kangaroo, and slogan is "Add some Roo to Your Do!", along with earlier advertisements having the voiceover of an Australian woman, the brand is not Australian owned, made, nor conducts research & development in Australia. The products are manufactured in Europe and the United States by Procter & Gamble, an American company. The brand and initial product was created by American businessperson Thomas Redmond in the late 1970s
