"To Primark, With Love!"
A review of Thomson Reuters (Formerly Primark) by Carol Wood - Saturday 10th of November 2007
I live in Cambridge, still sadly without a branch of my beloved Primark. I have been visiting the branch in Bedford since it opened last spring, and I rate it very highly. Considering the number of bargain-crazed women who stampede through its rails every day, there are always plenty of staff whose job it is to replace garments on appropriate rails and I have to say they seem to do this in extremely patient and cheerful manner! The queues for the changing rooms are not usually a mile long, unlike some of the other branches I have gone to where you end up saying to hell with dignity and start trying skirts on behind pillars! The shoe department, which is bound to look like Imelda Marcos has had a tantrum in her bedroom, is well run and when I remarked to one sales assistant that I didn't envy his job at the end of a day, matching all the stray shoes, he just smiled and said it wasn't that bad :-)If we finally get a branch of Primark in Cambridge, I hope it will be as well run as the one in Bedford. And I can guarantee that if that turns out to be the case, they're going to be seeing a lot of me. (But I promise I won't strip off behind a pillar!)
