It's good to hear from you again, Mate. I thought perhaps you had gone to ground - up on the Quantocks, of course - or some such thing.
About the only stuff I buy new these days is footwear (walking boots, and the like); otherwise, there are plenty of charity shops around. In many High Streets that's all you'll see (apart from the off-licence, the bookies, and the nail-bar).
Meanwhile ... how's the Fergie?
