    ......and watch the world go by.
    Long overdue cafe/bar now open at Peel Parade.
    Sat watching people walk by.

    One thing that's striking tho - there isn't that many 'normal looking' folk walking about in TARN these day.
    There was only me and 2 others that I saw today.

    I think you mean Peel Square.
    Peel Parade is round back of Argos.

    By the very definition of normal, if you only saw 2 others looking like you, then you are not normal.

    I look pretty normal. Whitey will testify that Peachey is a surprise package.

    We're going to have some places like that when the town centre is finished, where the temporary market is now and that bit of the road behind will become the new town square.

    The cafés/restaurants are going to be the likes of TGIs so you'll be talking £4 at least by the time it's done so, as much as I don't like to say, the less desirable folk are likely to stay up the Chennel's/Corner Pin end of town

    Think that was linked more to the civic refurbishment, location doesn't really help it's probably the quietest part of the town centre so was always going to attract people who were up to no good.

    Must admit I can't remember that much about it before, just that it was a bit of grass and some benches

    It was just a green square of grass sometime in summer they put gigs on

    The areas now has been landscaped in a fashion that makes it unusable
