Transcript

00:00Or out-of-town retail parks, Killing or High Street?

00:04I suppose they are in a way, yeah, but I mean, come on, what do you do?

00:08People get built, people go and shop there, so it's people's choice, isn't it?

00:13If I can find a local shop that wants stuff I want in the High Street, I go there by choice.

00:19I avoid retail parks if I can.

00:21I'd first go to a retail park because there's more shops, you see.

00:25Whereas here, well, just shops here and there, you know.

00:29I hardly ever go to a retail park.

00:32I use, you know, the supermarkets locally and shops locally,

00:37which I think helps people and the community locally.

00:40Town versus retail parks, you know, which ones are you in more often?

00:44I like town, yeah. Yeah, I like coming to town.

00:48Takes me back to years ago when I was due to change, when I was a kid, you know.

00:53Stuff like that, you know, sentimental places that you're used to and not going to have.

00:56So I tend to buy clothes now more in the supermarkets.
