When you get back into town and nothing is quite how you remembered…
A jolly day out……meeting friends……for coffee…Think the weather’s brightening up?Shopping centre’s changed since I was last here.Wonder what the new book shop is like.…or the new department store?Very nice, but I haven’t seen any human beings yet…
Reminds me of some of the derelict towns on the Cumbrian coast. Ignored by successive governments since the death of iron & steel, coal and fishing, and ignored by the Lake District because not fashionable enough!
Yes I certainly had, we were just talking about Blockbusters – the children used to like going there, even when the film they wanted was ‘out’ – all three copies of the video.
That’s very strange. On my few and far between trips to Norwich, the city is always bustling with people, and the shops crowded. Perhaps the poor broadband and wi-fi signals in Norfolk mean that less people shop online? 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
