I wonder if anything will cchange.

and how long it will take them to knacker the "success", shag the
goodwill, and sell it on to Klingfisher


Don't Kingfisher already own Screwfix?


yes

another question :- what willl the "new" toolsatan be called?

IIRC, it was the original owners of Screwfix that sold out to Kingfisher
and then set up the rival Toolstation.


yes

Wonder if they'll do the same trick
again?


and what name do we fancy? Screwstation?
