HMV closure a sign of the times for retailers
As a frequent visitor to the store in Grafton St and a not infrequent or ungenerous contributor to its coffers, its demise will leave a large void in my life.
It is sad that during the recession, too many household names are disappearing from our streets. It would appear that the only stores opening are charity shops, mobile phone shops, German discounters and Tesco Expresses. I could easily live without any of those, but it is a real sign of the times.
