    As has been mentioned, they're only legally obliged to refund something if it's faulty, though most large retailers do.

    Though if you'd bought them online, they would have to refund them.

    Stick a hole in it and say it’s faulty. There’s three floors of tills so doubt you’ll get the same person.

    Surely this is why we have significant others. Women love Taking things back, they're always doing it.

    Sorry if this has been answered already as I'm just catching up with this one, from what I have heard the people who own fruit and employed the manager have decided not to reopen as the manager would not be returning after the refurb, and they know how good he was and don't think anyone will replicate his success.

    I'm not sure its quite as clear cut as that, but the owners are certainly having a break while they consider what to do (the owners of Fruit the company, not the building itself) and its unlikely it will be Fruit in its current guise certainly

    Those recent pictures of Bonus Arena make it look ****. Long narrow soul-less box.
    Discussions about the capacity (too low) have been done to death, but the design of it is crap.
    Just saying like.

    Brewdog is opening up a bar in the old town.

    Norwich already has one but we're getting there.

    I hope they have been drinking their 0.5% Nanny State beer if they are opening brains up and not the stronger stuff. Need a steady hand.

    No thanks, give me a pint of fizzy chemical lager as against real ale dishwater any day! Also given their interior ''decor' schemes they could have saved a fortune and opened up in the National Theatre Cinema on Beverley Road.

    The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

    Brewdog is hardly "real ale dishwater"

    I wouldn't even describe it as real ale (although it probably technically is)

    Punk IPA is very good, Elvis Juice is foul (but strong) but not "real ale" in the true sense of the word ("craft" maybe)

    They’ve revolutionised beer in cans.

    That may or may not be a good thing.

    Like Punk IPA. Though the only pub near me which sells it near me charges a ridiculous amount for it.
