They sent this out a while ago:


"...You may have noticed that progress on the building work has been slower than expected. But we have all been working as hard as we can, and we are now pleased to announce that we will be opening our doors on ? drumroll please ? Friday 20 March. We promise it will be worth the wait!"


Haven't seen them promoting this opening date online anywhere though, so perhaps they're not too confident about it. Looks to me like there is still a lot to do in less than 3 weeks.

It's kind of silly for them to again miss their own opening date. I know it's a major refurbishment and you never know what you're going to uncover - making it difficult to estimate how long building works will take - but surely the old adage of 'under promise, over deliver' applies here. After missing the original 'christmas opening', they really should be a bit more conservative with the announcements.
I peeked in this morning while waiting for the bus. The interior still looked like breeze blocks and plasterboard. I'm waiting for Annika Rice to turn up saying 'We have 24 hours to open this cinema, anyone got a tin of paint they could donate?'

I have some shades of grey.

    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.
