copycat Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 The old Black Grace Cowley Estate AGents on corner of Athol Street. Had heard it was going to be part of an expanding Java empire and there was a planning permission sought and in the window on a yellow card for a while. But now the windows are covered in the name of Energy Certainly a high profile site but whats actually going on - didn't have time to rubber neck to find out so answers please. I thank you.

Just a suggestion - why not take your rubber neck back there when you have more time. Then you can let us all know instead of asking the usual infantile questions.

I think the four huge Energy FM stickers obliterating each window sort of give the game away. Your only beef - MCB - is that you broke the shock news it was going to be a coffee shop and you were wrong because you believed what you were told was true.

copycat Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 so the planning application for change of use to a coffee shop was just a ruse as was the yellow A4 planning notice in the window.no i don't think so, more likely the owner of the lease / Java has done a nice quick deal with an astute businessman running a radio station as well as stunting the possibility of Costa Coffee expanding.

copycat Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 an astute businessman running a radio station Haha, you trying to get back into radio by creeping to the bosses? "trying to get back in" - is wrong because I'd either have had to have been in to start with or pre-suposes if I had been then I want to be again which isn't right either. & some people you have respect for - others you don't.

TerryMcCann Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Much as it annoys me it is in the paper today that permission has been granted to turn it into a coffee shop. So as soon as MCB changes his/her/it's mind the original claim comes true. That's what I call an ear to the ground there MCB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dontlookbehindyou Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 It would of been a nice change if it was a tea bar or tea house, specialising in different teas instead of another coffee bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
