Spudulike, founded in Edinburgh
in 1974, had sought a rescue deal
with landlords ahead of its demise


[Spudulike, the baked potato chain,
has collapsed leaving all 298 staff redundant
and facing the agony of submitting claims
for lost wages.
Administrators confirmed in a statement
on Monday that all 37 of the Spudulike group's
outlets and head office were shut on Friday
after a last ditch sale of the business fell through.]

Terrible or not, let’s spare a thought for the 300 people losing their jobs?

Should be changed to "No Marbs".

I genuinely haven't seen a spud-u-like for years. I thought they'd already closed down.

Who doesnt love a jacket spud though?....They just got greedy and priced themselves out of the market most likely. The profit margin on a spud has to be pretty high.
