And I have to disagree, Id rather it been an 'empty restaurant' than what it is now, it looks like an eye sore when walking/driving past. Whereas when it was 'Chimes' sign, you couldnt even tell it was closed, it just looked like a nice, decent restaurant.

Im ahshamed at looking at it, one of the first shops coming into Oswaldtwistle, and you see that, its turning into Blackburn Road (Which is slightly improving now actually).. but think of all the visitors to Oswaldtwistle (IE: Ossy Mills Shoppers).. walking into Oswaldtwistle, and seeing that shop, sign over sign, etc.. and the next window is just breeze blocks with no sign at all!.. then you get the Foxhill & Peel Court.. Im ashamed to think what visitors to the town think.
It is eighteen months, as my Godfather has the butchers next door, and I was eating in Chimes two days before the chef/owner did a midnight flit to Pleasington. I'm never wrong sunny Jim, well not about this.

You'd rather have an empty retaurant (with terrible, out of character PVC windows the last owner put in,) I'd rather have a local, friendly shop. C'est la vie.
