Well...... after much chicanery by the City Council it's FINALLY happened!
The article below says that the shop opens (officially) on Wednesday, but it actually had a 'soft opening' today and I'm pleased to export a steady stream of visitors and paying customers.
It's now up to us all to support it and prove the Council wrong!
COYY!
