Brighton, Fire, Dawlish, Wilko, Greggs, Temu, Project Bakeover EP202

We’re back after a summer break. We went to Brighton on the weekend of the big hotel fire (we had nothing to do with it!). We talk about Brighton’s faded grandeur but we can recommend a decent fish and chip shop.

Andy talks about Dawlish… another fine place to visit and how the railway runs right along the seafront but advises you don’t drive to Devon. We talk about our old friend the train day ranger.

In retail roundup Wilko a major 400 store chain in the UK looks like it’s going bust. Andy tells us Greggs bakeries are going to go into Sainsburys Supermarkets. We think that’s a bit tacky!

We are probably contributing to the demise of the High Street as we have started shopping on Temu… and find it surprisingly good.

Finally… we talk about a series we have found based in Canada called Project Bakeover. Series 1 was great but series 2 has some rather strange quirks. Have you seen it? Get in touch: nick@twovoices.co.uk
