Not sure if this info has been posted yet (tried a search and did not find anything)

Go Outdoors to open a new store in Swansea early 2012.

The store is to be on the site of the old Focus DIY in Llansamlet, so will be less than half a mile from everyone's favourite camping store in Swansea ABC.

No date yet for the opening, but I passed the site yesterday and work has commenced on the conversion.

We went into our local Go at Colchester, a real disappointment had hardly nothing to get excited about, think they will be handy for seeing it before I buy if off eBay

Well it's a tidy little store, good display of erected tents outside including the nice looking Corado 4 and the giant Corado 8. Did not seem as big a selection of clothing inside as I have seen in the Cardiff store, but the camping equipment section in comparison seemed bigger. No opening offers to speak of, only bought a new set of plates/cups and a collapsible colander.

Went there on Saturday morning, definitely the place to be it was rammed, had to park on the road cos the car park was so full.

Dragged my not so keen on camping hubby along and while I only browsed .... he spotted (and made encouraging noises about) a very nice little Weber bbq, a utility tent and also went off looking for a fridge for us mumbling "you'll have to decided about France soon, if thats what you want to do", by this time I was totally flumuxed and decided it was time to go home for a sit down before the rugby.

I'll go back and have a proper look without him and maybe treat him to a bbq for our anniversary lol
