I’ve heard conflicting accounts and can’t find anything on the internets. The little lady is waiting for a dress to be altered at one of the shops and they’ve gone a bit quiet.

Obviously, our problems are as naught compared to the family of Stephen Hunt, the firefighter who died. RIP 🙁

Facebook says “We are pleased to inform you that Afflecks will be open for business as usual from tomorrow (Tuesday 16th July) we will be open from 10:30am.” and “Afflecks is open today – Entrance is via Church Street only – however once in you can visit all of your favourite shops. Please come and see us and show your support at this very sad and challenging time.”
