Re: east gate

Re: east gate
 

Harrods ? :)

Re: east gate
 

I thought a new bingo hall was planned for Eastgate ... any news of it?

Re: east gate
 

Whatever it will be, the job opportunities that it will open up, will only cover for example the staff that will all lose their jobs at The Works

There are a lot more closures than there are openings:(

Re: east gate
 

speaking of eastgate.....wonder what will happen to the building when the tax office shuts??

Re: east gate
 

That closure is a criminal waste of money -- it has been up less than 15 years.
Many staff there face moving to Liverpool or Manchester -- more locals thrown on the dole

A Bingo Hall Thats News To Me. Do We Need One
I Know We Dont Have A Lot In Accy But Bingo Hall.

Re: east gate
 

never realised the tax office was going?:confused: ridiculous, have had good n bad experiances with em, but the staff on eastgate have always been friendly n helpful on the many times i dealt with em.:(

Re: east gate
 

Quite right Margaret, My daughter work for Revenue and customs for 19 years in the Burnley office, morale is that low and nobody knows whats going on, they are treated with the mushroom concept, feed them bull sh*t and keep them in the dark, I think its information on a need to know basis, and they don't need to know. My daughter left last October, and it was a weight of her shoulders

Re: east gate
 

a polish deli :thankya:

Re: east gate
 

I`d heard it as going to be BINGO too.:DEyes Down

Re: east gate
 

The tax offices were all sold off in 2002 to a private investment company
BBC NEWS | Business | Revenue sell-off to tax haven firm
The staff at Accy tax office have always been a pleasure to deal with, but with the introduction of online filing of tax returns you could see the way this was going. God help you if you have a query in the future.

going up market

a £1.50 shop maybe..............

Re: east gate
 

there's nothign else u cud make the tax office into.

we had some new neighbours move in about 10 yrs ago from blackburn. so we said we'd taken em shopping. upon seeing the tax office they commented - oooh that must be debenhams right?

Re: east gate
 

or down market and a 99p shop :D

Re: east gate
 

Re: east gate
 

ita going to be a carpet shop thats from the horses mouth

Re: east gate
 

Whatever it ends up at it's going to need one hell of a turnover to pay the rent and to be honest Poundstretcher always seems quite to me. How long a lease do they have to sign?

Re: east gate
 

Saw carpets being loaded into the back of the unit this afternoon so i`d go for the carpet shop theory too.

Re: east gate
 

Carpet World it will be......

Bingo Hall being built on the wasteland next to Poundstretcher/Instore.

Re: east gate
 

what kind of bingo?? Gala or just little one?

Re: east gate
 

We`ll see how long it lasts:rolleyes:

Re: east gate
 

Not sure however i was speaking to a chap that owns a buisness near and he told me a bingo hall is being built on that wasteland.

Re: east gate
 

Has building on the bingo hall started then?

It is needed - I have bingo withdrawl symptoms

I had to stop going to the Empire because they were using poison/deodorant plug-in sprays
after the smoking ban started
