How many ‘Blossom” Streets there must be all over the world – and how many Norton Folgates! Typical of unimaginative corporate planning.

I didn’t know any of that. Hope to get to the British Land window of opportunity before it closes, to look at what sound like horrible plans. But I fear the odds are overwhelmingly in favour of the developers, with central and local government going to them cap in hand, among other things to make up the shortfall caused by the banking crisis, with public funding being a no-no and private development a yes-yes-yes please. Nevertheless, we have to continue the struggle with as much might as we can!
