Lancsdave - I sort of do run a business in the town day to day in that I employ a firm that works full time on properties in the town. Handimen, plumbers, electricians. If it works out we'll expand. I am in touch with it daily.

I've found the councillors to be open, honest and welcoming about the towns problems in the emails we've exchanged, and I look forward to meeting them at the end of the month.

Not all of the towns troubles can be solved them. Arndale is obviously one of the biggest, but its privately owned, and I'm guessing by a company that cannot afford to fix it (serious money in fairness). Same with the Conservative Club. The Victorian Arcade at Warner also privately owned. Easily acquired for £300k but not a viable prospect for anyone I think inc. current owners.
