New Openings & Developments

[wizzard]

In fact a Virgin Media store - they've opened it out too - it's looking nice.

I also noticed some kind of art exhibition filling up empty gaps in the empty Jeff Bains & Part Time units

Interesting, if that's the case, my housemate won't have an excuse bringing the poor broadband speeds to virgin media's attention

The 'Jet' has been a 'Murco' for several years, although I still think of it as the 'Texaco'..

The Murco is becoming a Jet again, I see.

Jet, I can almost remember their funny faces
That time you told them that you were going to be marrying soon
And jet I thought the only lonely place was on the moon

Pie and ale has got plans on the SBC site for a new restaurant. Haven't gone through all the details but looks quite swanky.

A coach driver made the same mistake recently

I made some nice changes to the old Tomos cafe yesterday.

 

[Really?]

Strange name for a café

 

[Entropy]

Looks smart!

Hope it helps attract more trade for them too

= mermaid, siren (seductive woman)...

I may have to pop in to find out how appropriate it is....

I had a sandwich last week from them which was...... nice.

Prices are a little bit on the steeper side to what used to be offered there - but good luck to them I say!

I haven't been back to this place for a good while.

I see they've kept the table's for 4, here.
Last time i went in, there were approx. 6 tables (for 4) taken up by 6 people, you do the math!

Why places (like this) insist on having table's for 4, i'll never know fnardy fnardy.

Have more table's for 2 and if 4 people want to sit next to each other, move the tables closer together.

I think people'd prefer to sit alone than together ...with strangers!

Perhaps he means Pie & Ale in the sense of the building, rather than the operators.

It's had many names - Noah's Ark, The Surgery , Palmer's(?), Pie and Ale House, Stafford Ale House

Looking at the plans it's going to be called Townhouse Social. Interestingly Google suggests Townhouse Social Stafford when I type it in, so a few people looking at it.

But it's not that building he's talking about, but on the corner of chapel street ex solicitors

Sounds very Hipster (although I thought was so 2013). I'll grow my bushy beard and get some tats in anticipation.

Hence the "Perhaps" - I have no idea, really.
