    Not sure on the shopping, but I understand the apartments are pretty much ready but there are some issues regarding getting access to them while the rest is under construction.

    TBH I think they should take down the hoarding, its been up too long, seems that they haven't got any tenants and are happy enough to just tip along, ............it's one ugly building, hope they knock the garage and put something decent in

    Heard word that they're having difficulty getting an anchor tenant for it. The building itself is a complete eyesore. In a few years time when it starts to get ragged round the edges it will look even worse.

    I see they have removed most of the scaffolding and some of the bottom units are ready for shops... apparently HMV are coming shortly.

    Are HMV going into their centre or into the new retail park?

    Oooh, Look forward to HMV! Though, that said, I buy most CD's and DVD's online now. Still though, handy for the odd impulsive purchase :)

    They are moving to Letterkenny Shopping Centre (the one with Penneys and Tesco) looks like its gonna be a big unit they are in. It will be handy there for parking etc..

    Ah, handy surely, since Tesco is open 24 hours. Can nip into Xtra for DVD's and into Tesco for a few beers and goodies! Great! :)

    It'll be detrimental to Xtravision's sales of Pringles etc, when they'd be cheaper and bigger variety next door!

    As we are straying off topic and I am in a good mood I have changed the thread title to include the off topic posts rather than producing yellow cards ;)

    No problems with that. I could see where this thread was or is going so I just extended the title to cover all posts
