My wife phoned up the shop 'High and Mighty' today and asked about some new slippers for me (size 15), only to be told they had just heard that they were going into administration! Another victim of the credit crunch I suppose, and I'll have to wear two pairs of socks around the house now. Good job they s-t-r-e-t-c-h! Oops, just ripped them! Rolling Eyes

Just read that N Brown have bought the High and Mighty chain, so I might get my new slippers after all! Laughing

Thank you H! Soon I hope to be 'Walking on Cloud Lucky Seven!' Anyone remember that record? Some other Guy, now! Laughing

They'll have bought little more than the name, and will just add it to their raft of catalogue/mail order/online stores, eg Shoe Tailor, all of which look the same and share the same admin and distribution process.
