Agreed Flash, but believe me it used to be a lot worse. I quite like a gritty feel about a town or city, Calne used to have the smell of an abatoir years ago along with a lot of derelict buildings. I think experiencing the depressed state of some places makes you appreciate other things.

Oooh, 5 years on they are gradually implementing my blueprint for the tope end of Town.  We'll get there eventually!  Just got the cinema in the wrong location by a few hundred yards.

Sounds more Tope Obadeyi to me...I liked it when we beat Soton early season 09, that night him and Wee Macca tore them a new one. A result as enjoyable as winning at Reading the last time we played at the Madejski....reason the presence of that loathsome old cunt Pardew in the opposition dug out.

Don't want to start a new thread for this, so this one will do.  We're visiting friends in Swindon this weekend and I want to get a new pair of 501s.  Where would be best for this...in town or the Outlet Village?  Thanks.

Back on the subject of the Town Centre....I previously wrote this....

Quote
Much of the Town Centre was originally housing, a number of streets being bulldozed and lost like Catherine Street, Mill Street, Carr Street, Brunel Street, Oriel Street....while other truncated like Turl Street, Byron Street.  If the economy can't sustain shopping through the traditional outlets, then build houses.

This article....broadly agrees, that the high street is increasingly redundant...therefore would it not make more sense for SBC, to reverse history and bulldoze the Town centre and replace it with affordable housing, as it was originally?

You might struggle to get 501's in there, lot's of other numbers though, it is a little bit pot luck in there.  As a backup go to Debenhams, though you will pay £70 a pair.

Eurocarparts, Halfords, even Asda do them.

Why don't you pop to primark and get a pair of skinny jeans for around a tenner?
