new cafe

Mick

Resting in Peace
Overlooker
I was asked to take some pics of the new cafe so here they are:
thought you would like to know i was nearly arrested for taking them,
the security guard said i need a permit to take pics in the arndale centre
so i went to the town hall they checked for me and said NO you don't need one
so i went back but they had changed guards and he said yes you do if you take
anymore you will be arrested so these are the last im taking in there.
the guard that said i need a permit is in the pics.

I cannot believe they threatened to arrest you just for talking a couple of pics. I have a dislike for jobsworths like the ones you encountered, but there must have been a change of policy as I have taken pics for relatives abroad and know there are a few websites with Arndale pictures on. I have a good mind to try my luck again this week and see what happens.
 
Is that the guy in two of the pictures? If it is I can see why he was upset at you, he's not working and wasting time trying to chat those ladies up.
 
thats the one hehe
should get a big group of members together with cameras and go in see what that will do
 
My mates got done for trying to do a film for their homework in B/burn shopping center BEFORE the sept 11 attacks!:confused:
 
I think that security guard should be reported to Arndale management for being sloppy on parade (he's got his hands in his pockets) and dereliction of duty (he's obviously not paying attention to what's going on). Someone could have got in there and planted 5 bombs in the time it takes to take 5 piccy's from different angles.
 
See what I mean about the cafe looking cheap and nasty. I think we should all meet down there on saturday with our cameras just for the hell of it. Did you notice any signs anywhere Mick, to say that photography is not allowed?
 
What about opening a book on how long the cafe will survive? I say until September 30th 2004

Just who would bomb the Arndale centre?? Pobably somebody trying to improve the place or extending the car park :ninja8: :ninja8: :horn8:
 
No lettie i didn't see anything saying NO PHOTOGRAGHS but to be honest i did not look
it just did not achere to me you would need a permit.
 
I think the next lot of pics i take will be in Russia easy to take them there than in Accrington .
 
OK Savo.....just seen your location. If you want to see an even greater piece of wanton destruction, then follow the thread on Sacred Heart.
 
Think it tells you on the entrance boards to the centre that you are not allowed to take photos/video film etc.Don't know why but its been the rule there for at least ten years! :rolleyes:
