    It's true

    The shopping centre is a monstrosity.

    I heard JPaul was involved in building some sites down here though. It was probably an evil ploy from the Croyians

    I'm sure I see a TV programme about this place some time ago,
    I don't think they will pull it down as this is just a publicly stunt to get more people to shop there.

    Is that where the Cumbernauld sausage comes from?

    Erm, no Baz, they're genuinly pulling down the old shopping centre. Good thing too. It is a bit of an eyesore.

    But in return we get 2 new ones

    With H&M and TKMaxx and everything and everything!

    Shame, i think it should be made a listed building, I'm into architecture.
    It's a Typical example of a building gone wrong, and i'm being honest you are quite lucky to have it removed.
    I bet you will have some protesters to save it, people are odd like that.

    what about the Cumbernauld sausage?

    I think you're confusing that with a CumberLAND sausage.

    CumberNAULD sausages would probably have sawdust in them

    I did see this on the TV at one time, Channel 4 TV programme 'Demolition'
    Some good pictures, it is an amazing building

    The funny thing is...
    when you're inside that shopping centre it's like a maze.
    It took me aaaaages to figure out how to get through it and sometimes I still get lost and have to make a huge detour.
    i think it's magic
