wish they would hurry up and open it we've had a long wait, thanks to those who blocked them coming in the first place, must have cost hundreds of thousands of pounds for those enquiries, thanks for nowt civic society and certain shopkeepers who objected well i'll no be in their shops again so who's sorry now   |
