The Haven, diagonally across the street from me has changed hands. Dan, Lorraine and the lads are heading to pastures new. Ray, a Londoner, is the new 'guv'.
The Blue Moon is still on the market.
Still no idea what's happening to the Italian Restaurant / Pizzeria next door.
Met the new(ish) owner of the Drunken Duck. He's from Norway and is, if I recall correctly, called Ruge.
Metro Apartments: we've just been repairing the canopy out front which had been leaking. A new invention called a gutter will also stop the rainwater dripping at precisely that point where you walk in! We've also been changing several electric breakers in the rooms - remarkable that even though they are made in Korea or Japan, if they stop functioning after two - yes two - weeks, there's no return/replace/repair policy. It's a case of 'you buys it you takes your chances'. I suppose it's no worse than placing a 40 quid bet on an outsider!
