York music store to close after 267 years in businessAn ''iconic' York music shop, believed to be the oldest in the UK, is closing after more than 260 years. This is what Government’s shit running of last 3 years is doing to all businesses! I bought a bass guitar from here, once, and several packs of strings over the years. It’s so sad to see this shop close. The way the high street is being treated is disgusting! WOW! That is an awesome run!
