I can clearly remember the day I was buying some fruit and veg on Great Yarmouth market. The radio was playing Oasis and I remarked that I was not too keen on them. The look on the face of the young man serving me was one that clearly said "of course not, you are far too old to appreciate them". He had to have a quick change of expression when I said, truthfully, that I much preferred Pulp. :lol:

Manufacturers often use reconstituted pulp to make juices.

Administration does not always equal death. Sometimes there is a reincarnation.

fwiw i think Debenhams will go altogether.
Actually went into administration on 9 April.

I can't see anyone being willing to take on any of the business for that future day when the high street re-opens. The (mostly) large and prominent stores will leave significant gaps.
RIP.

Covid-19 looks like the last nail in the coffin for the High Street.
