SAD PASSING

Perhaps today I became the first Brigg resident to lament the passing of Paper Lincs, the newsagents in Spring's Parade.
Despite having read the closure date of 'from July 30' only a few days ago I forgot and popped by for my usual morning paper, on the way to catching the 6.30am bus from Cary Lane to Scunthorpe. But the shutters were up.
We stated the reasons for Paper Lincs shutting at some length in an earlier story.
It's always sad when a small business closes in Brigg. Especially when you were a customer.
