What's happened to it?
Myself and Kathryn went into Manchester today to do a bit of record buying in Spininn. Turns out it was closed, on closer inspection it turns out that there where no records in the shop, no till, no staff ect. It looks like it's closed down [:o]
Nothing has been posted on their website so it's all a bit of a mystery. Can anyone shed some light on the subject?

:-O Damn, I've been meaning to head that way for ages, but haven't been through to Manc for like about a year :-(
Semi-good news is that the phone is still connected! I'll try and get hold of Pete or someone and find out the low-down.
With any luck, Pete is putting some of his fantastic ideas into practice, and they've moved to a better premises - was there no note on the door or anything?

Nope, no note on the door. No one in the record shops around knew it had closed too....strange. We tried the phone but we got no answer
