The one in Reading has been there for years - doing a thriving trade ... just another chain store coming to town.

Had a quick look around the new Dunelm Mill shop on the B&Q retail site. Certainly packed tight with goods and people today. A good place to shop for bedding and tableware. Other stuff, well, make up your own mind. It's probably a low cost version of John Lewis at Home.

I did notice driving around that there were 559 spaces in the Parkway carpark and 49 in the Kennet Centre. Not sure what that means other than perhaps the charge for parking at the Parkway isn't to everybody's taste.

Perhaps, User, instead of business booming we are just getting back what was lost through the roadworks etc of the last few years!

If that is the case, then given the current financial state of the country, I would say that it's pretty impressive. To have the town centre shop units let at pre-recession levels is good going.

There's a gap in the market for a 98p store.
