I got told about 6 months ago that a group was trying to get funding for a "drop-in" style addiction centre - might all have come to nothing by now though.

What is it about Indian restaurants, and take aways...you can get 2,3,4, all next to each other on the same block, but you only ever see 1 chippy, or 1 cafe or one coffee shop......when have you ever seen 2 chippys next to each other???
