Its OK, the ones near me are fine
But with downloading and Amazon, I can understand its potential demise.
Skyrim was the last thing I could have bought from there. It was £42 in HMV and £22 In ASDA. Where do you think I was gonna get it?
I now remember the last thing I did buy was a David Bowie Album.
