The standard PT store that appears to be the same everywhere they have a branch. However, it seems that this company is to wind up, so the staff tell me. Soooohh, buy up the stock, if you like it!! read more

I would give a higher review, but the lady at the till is a bit scary…read more I tend to be one of the younger clients of this establishment, with most of the ladies (rarely see a gent) being of the elderly sort. I am no spring chicken, mind you, but I'm a young whipper snapper compared to some of the clientele. The supplies are good, though the selection of crochet accessories is rather woeful, with the vast majority catering towards the home knitter. And there are usually some yarns which are on sale. Having come from North America I am used to yarn being much cheaper - with lines such as Red Heart, Lion & Bernat. I am aware that these yarns are not readily available in the UK, but I suspect that there is still this mentality that knitting/crochet should be only with expensive yarns. I would like this shop, and others, to carry some cheaper acrylic yarns - not everything needs to be made of alpaca wool handpicked by Mayan Indians in the wilds of Ecuador, sometimes cheap acrylic and/or questionable cheap welsh wool is just as good.

Unsurprisingly you'll no longer find actual guns here, but you can buy a selection of air guns, ranging in price from £30 to well over £1000. Having opened up in the 19th century, C&H Weston is steeped in history, so it is certainly worth a visit. If you like strange tat then you'll be delighted to know they sell giant ornamental pieces like Owls and Magpies.

It has a fairly wide selection of materials, wool, netting, cotton, needles, fabric etc and the staff are friendly and personable. I havent always had the best customer service in there (the staff wont necessarily stop what theyre doing to serve you, for example) but the prices are affordable for an independent shop and thats what matters in this time of the credit crunch!

I like next, some of their clothing is really good quality, plenty of items in stock this summer just gone, and no matter which store you go to in any city, it's always consistent really, offering the same throughout. This store is nice and large and offers all womens and mens range as well as little ones. Only thing i dont like, is the annoying catalogue person on the door asking you to join up and pay for a catalogue each time i go it, bin it next, and move on to the NEXT one!

The branch is in the corner of the boulevard next to the dentist and medical centre. Whilst the branch is always well stocked there isn't often a good choice of items and some of the prices are quite high. I find that the store is difficult to navigate due to the clothes rails being too close together, it feels almost claustrophobic in there and is definitely no chance of navigation with a pushchair. Whilst I continue to go in and browse occasionally when I am in the UK I very rarely find anything which I wish to buy.

That said you can pick up a good bargain here if you are willing to look hard. I find Next clothes very good for work and as such it doesn't matter as much if it isn't up to date fashions as blouses and suits change very little between seasons. The store is spacious and offers plenty of room for browsing. When there is not a sale on the prices are still good but the store is a lot more tidy. As in all Next stores when a sale is on you have to rummage hard to find what you want. Unfortunately there are no changing rooms in this store which means that you might have to gamble on something fitting you. However the staff are willing to exchange goods if you find an item does not fit when you get home.
