Not too sure, I remember it was about the time that MFI took over Hygena, might be getting mixed up with the ex-cat shop that was mentioned.

I'm vaguely thinking that you bought the stuff from MFI at one place and went somewhere else to get it.

Dunno - fazy brain


Around the time Mfi where in Valley Rd, if you bought a large item off them like a full kitchen, you paid up front and about 6 weeks later it arrived in bits and bobs on the back of a British Rail wagon, or if you were lucky like me 2 kitchens arrived and no one came and got one back even after they were told. They did take over hygena and i think schreiber. At the premises in Bidston when you bought an item you had to drive your car down the side of the building to the store room to pick it up which seemed like going else where.


God help us,
Come yourself,
Don't send Jesus,
This is no place for children.
