Personally, I welcome a new cinema - it's in a good spot; I hope it's a nice one with big seats and no popcorn. And ushers.'"
YES !!! People still do shop in markets ! Despite the fact there are far less stalls than the old market there are still some very good ones. On the outside market I shop at one of the fruit & veg stalls for very fresh fruit , veg & eggs at very good prices. On the indoor market there is an excellent shoe stall where I always buy my boots & slippers again at much better prices than the high street stores ( leather fur lined boots for less than £30 - ideal for winter rugby !). There is also an excellent stall selling hosiery / gloves/ socks / hats etc again great for the rugby . In one of the shops running along the front of the market there is a cobbler / key cutting stall which again great value. So being a regular customer of all these stalls I feel satisfied that I get value for money AND support local people who may in turn spend their monies supporting OUR team ...its a win win !
