A family-run electricals store is closing its doors for The Final time after More Than 90 years.

Mr Robinson told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: " It's been a photographer's shop that my granddad started, a radio shop And Then televisions.

" We've still got the original television we first rented out in the 1950s.

" I daren't plug it in, But I Dare say it would work. "

Mr Robinson said one of his fondest memories was revamping The Store while his father was On Holiday .

" We took out a 2ft brick wall and six girders in the ceiling and we did it All In about a week and a half, " He Said .

Mr Robinson also recalled being asked to stop using the tagline " No 1 in The High Street" - Even though it was factually accurate as The Shop 's address was 1 High Street.

" I was told I couldn't use it, But I can because We Are , " he added.

Despite it being Hard Work , Mr Robinson said he had really enjoyed his time at The Store - But was now ready for a break, adding: " I'm probably going to have a holiday as soon as this lot gets sorted out. "
