    Hi greg.
    When did you return from Benidorm.
    Hope you had a great holiday.
    It seems to be every town greg is the same shops boarded up.
    Amazon has a lot to do with it.
    But I must admit greg were we live in Workington our town is thriving with new businesses coming all the time.
    CARLISLE our city used to be very busy but now our town is absolutely thriving and people are coming to Workington for all the top shops and not going to Carlisle.
    Cheers greg take care.
