Borders Down Under - Update

The Dominion Post (via Stuff.co.nz) is reporting that bidding for the Borders Australian and NZ stores has now closed.
A&R Whitcoulls seems certain to be one of the final contenders for the 20 Australian and four New Zealand Borders stores. Dymocks is another business believed to be still keen. Other parties cited have included Berkelouw Books and possibly large general retailers such as Woolworths.
I predict a quick decision and announcement.

Here is my update from earlier this month.
