    The place next door to The Old Forge (two doors down from Massimos) is getting a refurb. Seems to have been empty for a while.

    An Pucan on Forster St is closed. Sign on the door says "for renovations".

    We just walked past and it looks like the stock is being removed, so must be lots of work being done :rolleyes:

    Mr Price (Terryland) is in a dispute with their landlord's bank. It's not closed per se, but the staff are picketing outside.

    Their manager was on the radio today (Galway Bay) Their landlord didn't get permission from ACC to lease the building to Mr. Price. Landlord is now gone bust and ACC are now trying to pull the lease. Mr Price want to stay and are willing to pay fair market rent or purchase the unit at fair market price but ACC are not interested.

    This was just their version of the story but if it's true, it's mad that the bank won't make a deal rather than have an empty unit on their hands.

    Nice one. I thought it was looking all sparkly shiny alright, as I was driving past yesterday evening.

    I hope it's 24 hour like before, t'would be handy for us nocturnal folks that need milk and bread at 4am.
