Can't wait, going to great having somewhere good to look in town!
I do hope so I love Wilkinson but weren't there rumours about all this about 8 months ago and nothing came of it. Surely does not take 8 months to sort out a lease?

It's only tatty because the landlord has let it get like that.

Great news, about time we had some action on this site.
Incidently, I saw the Labour Party were looking for votes outside there today; seemed highly symbolic to me that they should be doing so outside a shabby, empty, abandoned place!

Good one. Although I was expecting to see some sea. You know, that bit between the land and the sky.
Just because the place is empty, doesn't mean it should be allowed to look a mess. Instead of posters for a circus that has long since left town and whitewash (how very 70's) on the glass, how about community posters. Minimal cost to the landlord.
