• "` How many Mums consider how much of their
valuable `shopping time' in the town centre is actually
spent shopping?
Just think of the time spent finding somewhere to park, as
near to the shops as possible of course, and then returning
laden with shopping to find you have a parking ticket.
Why do it?
At the West Swindon Shopping Centre shopping can be fun
for all the family because you can visit all your favourite shops
in an all-weather, relaxing atmosphere. Take advantage of our
children's creche, places to eat, low priced petrol and free and
secure parking - all on one level.
Oh please Mum... •
shopping.
