Stop Press:
As result of foundation work on new shopping centre, buildings within quarter mile radius found to have structural defects. Council decides to bulldoze whole area and spend £300m on 56-storey replacement for Staffold Place and Riverslide offices.

A smug spokesperson said: "We have known for some time that the civic centre was likely to collapse and had planned accordingly by frontloading a robust strategy incorporating robust robustness in such a way that taxpayers are unaware of being robustly fleeced. Figures on the back of an envelope show that this exciting project will have saved us more than £1,267,956 per month by 2188, once more demonstrating that we are fantastic. You plebs are lucky we let you live in Stafford, he added, while eating his beluga caviar sandwich".

Council decide to twin Stafford with Las Vegas.

They all take themselves of to las Vegas with the council checkbook and get very drunk, and on a whim they decide to blow the years budget on the roll of a dice.

By some fluke they win ...big time. The amount they win is so huge that I dont know how to write it down.

Suddenly Stafford is so rich that everyone gets 10 years council tax refunded and everyone employed by the council get their wages doubled.

Everything is knocked down and rebuidng starts....money no object.
All the big boys want to come to Stafford and with the worlds best architects this is going to happen!

Local individual shops gets priority so that Stafford has an eclectic mix of local talent merging with the likes of Stella McCartney.

Riverside shops and restaurants abound, trees are planted, palm trees and a beach made with sand imported from the Caribbean.

There is a promnade along the river with live music shows ..the very best musical talent wanting to perform in stafford.

Everyone is happy.

The end.
