Subject: RE: BS: Christmas? A rant
We have one of these in Sheffield. I call it Meadowhell (really Meadowhall), and I am delighted to say I have never been there. I often pass two more Trafford Centre and Metro Centre Gateshead.

I love Meadowhall & The Trafford Centre; less keen on the Metro Centre which isn't as inspiring architecturally. The post-modern excesses of The Trafford Centre I find especially thrilling - nothing like eating Subway in that huge ocean liner food-hall beneath that painted sky. And I like it at night, all lit up, looks like some heavenly Bethlehem.

Another Bernard Sumner reference: the older he gets, the more he comes to resemble Phil Mitchell...
