I did reckon on that mate, to enhance the "Masters" lads cafe no doubt.

Maybe better just outside the lift, there is a potential for cost cutting, as they maybe watered quite often saving the council from doing it

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
So nearly 70 markets entered the competition at £763 a go? That's comfortably £50,000 for a glass trophy and an awards ceremony plus a few civil servants. Marvellous, another reason to feel good about the way this country spends our money.
Perhaps Bury Council had the sense not to enter and just concentrated on getting on with it.

Perhaps Bury already know they have a good market, because of the thousands of people who travel there to spend their dosh.
They mightn't be as needy for a certificate, and a pat on the head.
Especially when you have to pay hundreds of pounds to receive that pat.
