Poundstretcher Opens In Evesham

As I said on Monday, with our annual Eurovision stay with Hugh in Worcester imminent  we are really, really, really, really trying to maintain some sort equilibrium Chez le Towers in an effort to stay calm and not spontaneously combust amidst all the mounting excitement ...... so yesterday Nigel went off to town to simply post a couple of letters but on the way up couldn’t help but notice the pumping sound of music coming from the direction of the High Street …….

…….. it all sounded very exciting …… and enticing  ……… a special event, in Evesham, on a Tuesday?

With letters hastily deposited, it would have been rude for Nigel not to investigate said music, noticing that it was coming from the old Co-Op building, heralding a take over from Poundstretcher, how brilliant is that?

Well, it would have been remiss of the little fella not to go across for a cheeky mooch wouldn’t it?  However, sadly, though he lingered, trying to look both appealing and wanting, there were no actual “free balloons” being distributed,  despite being clearly advertised ………

……… but hey ho, it would have looked churlish not to enter their portals for the lack of a free balloon. Passing under the impressive and abundant red and white balloon arch Nigel reckoned that they’d used more helium than they had a first anticipated, hence the aforementioned lack of freebies!

Inside the new shop was massive, much, much bigger than the one that has just closed at the nearby retail park ……..

…….. with enough household cleaning, fragrance and storage type nature  to keep Darrell in the way he has always dreamed of becoming accustomed …….

……. plus many other things that Nigel didn’t even think he “needed” ……. until he saw them ……..

……. like a new lunch bag and a very fetching leopard design bedside lamp.  Yes, Evesham appears to have got itself a new mooching hole with something that will appeal to each of us ………. but there’s more …… something so stupendous that it blew poor Nigel’s mind, so much so, it deserves a separate post of its own!  Until tomorrow ……
