I did hear tales of one of the large hotel chains filling their rooms with refugees and some hoo-ha about them complaining that they weren't being given the same food as the paying guests. In days gone by the Grand was part of this chain, but I am not up to date with it's present owners.

I know that...you know that. ......but is it still owned by them? It seems to have had a fair few owners since Butlins had it.

Yes, it's still a Brittania, as were the ones named in the Asylum seekers news story.

Was;nt sure if roofers on Broadway Boulavard where there just as part of a survey team but yesterday they where working above the garage replacing damaged slates so that looks positive.

There has been a Catering event at Venue Arena.

However, I did see a few workmen at the Grand Theatre.
