    The Doncaster and Lincoln branches both closed earlier this year.  No more custom from me (they were the branches that were convenient).
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained

    Our local Homebase has only been Homebase in name for some time, it now calls itself a Clearance Outlet. No plants, only the garden stuff that has yet to be sold and great heaps of 'stuff' at presumably clearance prices.


    In the sticks near Peterborough

    I do like my local branch - good people. St Albans are advertising vacancies.

    Ours, St Albans, became Bunnings and then went back again to Homebase! All the cost of rembranding, re-emplyment, store redesign...... management!
