Then there was the destruction of the outdoor market which put almost all of the stall holders out of buisness as they couldnt be accomodated on broadway in those blue metal hut things that were dumped there so by teh time the market was finished most of teh stall holders had moved on and this is why most of the stalls only sell junk now dont know what the current lot are doing but i wouldnt hold your breath on retailers getting a helping hand but i do hope i am proven wrong .Mind you if they are a big buisness and offer to build a roundabout and splash a bit of tarmac down it seems to do the trick around here when you need a little help with pesky planning etc It seems so easy to pick fault and remember what has been done to screw our town up and it shouldnt be infact it would be nice if noticable efforts were remembered and im sorry but flash dances and foriegn foodmarkets dont save towns they come and go its long term plans that are needed and preferably ones that work with the retailers and give breaks when times are tough. only when it was too late did teh council drop the parking disc scheme.By the time it was dropped all it meant was that you didnt have to display a disk when nipping to pundland for batteries or a browse through charity shops dont get me started on the new look market hall if that little steak through the towns heart didnt finish teh town off i dont know what it will take to do so but it wont be pretty. edit: hang on the new bus station may do it !!! |

perhaps current and future councils should make one also and learn from it instead of upgrading and expanding they could try making what we already have work before adding more failure.. oops at it again :) |

I think the vodafone rumour is right. I was in Llandudno last week and was told by staff at their branch that the Accrington store would be closing very soon

Re: Arndale another one bites the dust.
Not sure what the council can do. The problem is retailers don't want to invest in a town, and existing ones won't survive when the town is fast becoming the biggest magnet for the dregs of society. There aren't many towns where one of the biggest businesses in town encourages that :mad:

Re: Arndale another one bites the dust.
Notice outside Accrington Superbowl this morning says that due to the current economic climate it has closed! Don't know if this is the same for Vue cinema too as it doesn't say on the notice!
Best Regards - Taggy |
Re: Arndale another one bites the dust.
Have just checked and its just Superbowl which has closed down, Vue Cinema still open.....for now perhaps!
Best Regards - Taggy |

probably due to their lanes been warped and the machines putting the incorrect amount of pins back for your second shot rather than economic climate.I got fed up of constantly having to get attndents and went blackburn instead or burnley which have much better machines and lanes making a family activity more pleasurable. |
