Yeah the save the planet brigade I recon most of them are shopping online and helping to cause the problem with packaging, transport cost etc adding to global warming. Get ones backside into gear and go to the shops I say.
Its the old saying I think everybody knows the price of everything but the value of nothing.
But then all that tat still has to get to the shop to be sold in the first place, the staff have to travel to it to work in it, the punters have to travel to it to buy from it. The shop has to be lighted, heated and have fixtures and fittings (that they are always changing). Home delivery where one bloke drives round in one van and drops everything off actually uses less resources -assuming enough people are doing it. Which they are.

I've never liked shopping, I hate going to the shops in fact so I'm probably not the best person to ask.
As for the boarded up shops I think we are in a transition phase at the moment where people think 'The High Street' will somehow revive, but it won't. Once that is realised change of use will be granted and they'll all be ripped down or converted into accommodation.
