I avoid going anywhere near the C.B.D if I can.
Yeah, me too. Its just all so grey & boring in there now, & so few people.
Mind you though, I'll be interested to see what happens with the building which once housed our Art school & several language schools, its a lovely old art deco building in Worcester st betwen the square & Manchester st. Its apparently being done up & turned into apartments for well off people so I'm hopeful they'll restore it properly.
The square's just depressing to see now when compared with the way it was. I suspect far too much say may have been given to developers.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
