How's the bit linking the train station and the bus station? I'm guessing it's mostly not open yet, given the state it was in last weekend.

Fairly fed up with having to shout over "CRASH!", "BANG!", "WOLLOP!" at work like. Fucking builders.

you can walk right down to the bus stands from the train platforms no problem. All done apart from the makeshift queuing system for bus tickets (cones and hazard tape).

So, how big is the Apple Store? Is it just an iPod store on steroids or does it have a Genius Bar and presentation area?

Flash mob my arse!
I didn't think there could be anything more of a crock of shit than a flashmob, but a fake staged flashmob seem to be able to manage it,

I was thinking the same thing as I watched it. how did they get music through the centres PA system if it was a flashmob? Where'd the lighting rig come from. Or did someone just drop all that off while walking past just before they all crouched to the floor?

If there's one thing I can think of that's more cunty than wacky fucking students carrying out a fucking flashmob, it's professional flashmobbers.

Ta! Should've thought of that myself really... it looks like a pretty decent wee store there.

*and 'flash mob' was a load of crap. A zombie one would be fucking awesome. I've seen that in other cities.

Sounds like yet another place to avoid, like we needed another "Dawn Of The Dead" for the drones to flock to.

Internet shopping it is, no dealings with people.
