Obviously after reading this thread, Homebase have announced today they're
closing a quarter of their stores.

They put it down to the modern generation not being into DIY as their
parents were.

Not sure how they work that one out - given they stopped being a simple
DIY shed ages ago.

Perhaps they might look at why replacing high priced DIY goods with
equally high priced soft furnishings, etc, hasn't worked. The clue might
be in the high prices.
