    No its just me opinion I still respect your opinion.



    Whats wrong with believing in Liverpools middle class culture, it shouldn't be seen as sacrilege because the working class have for too long tried to represent Liverpool, sorry if that offends you but I respectfully disagree with you.

    And whats this lower middle class you are on about?
    I'm sorry TJ's is crap. However, to return to the point London Road will remain a traditional area aimed at working class people under the new scheme. There probably will be new flats and retail units but I can hardly see Gucci opening a store there can you?

    Personally I hope they demolish most of the lower end of London Road and rebuild it.

    There ain't much in London Rd except the Odeon and TJs (and the Royal George which I oft frequent). The Odeon will probably end up in some multiplex in Paradise St. and TJs might well relocate to Church St with Primark when the rest move out to Paradise St. Guess Church St. will become the new London Rd. and London Rd. will be finished. (And the smokin' ban will probably finish the George).

    The grosvenor people have got to find a use for the Odeon building. as far as I'm aware TJ's have no plans to move and the future is bright for church Street

    Finally after yeaars of decline London Road is on the up

    And I can't wait for the smoking ban to come in. If people want to give themselves cancer let them in the privacy of their own homes

    When I come home from a bar my clothes smell of smoke---- time for a cultural change live with it.

Don't you wonder what the implications of the Paradise St. development will be tho' for the rest of the city's shopping streets? - It's got to have some kind of knock on effect.

    Yep, I'm also aware of the masses of people choosing to shop at New Mersey Retail Park rather than go into town which is a bad thing too, including The Trafford Center (Which shouldn't happen), why earn your money in Liverpool and spend it in Manchester?

    Maybe it'll all turn out okay and we will end up with a greater diversity of shops in the city centre hence negating the need to go elsewhere. I was lookin' for a pet shop the other day and since the demise of City Pets (now Lloyds Bar) couldn't find one - ended up having to go to Old Swan.
