You'll have to be quick, it's a temporary event running until October 30th.
I expect I'll have a gander.
Long term, nobody knows what's going to happen with the site.

Ooo OOoo Got to get a butchers at that. I'll do my Mackay impersonation on the landings, or if Vic wants that role, I can do a good Norman Stanley Fletcher. |

Yes, just a matter of time before the place is put to some profitable commercial use (apartments, hotel etc) rather than being used as a landmark attraction for the town.
When were you last in Reading town centre? I think you'd be stucking faggered at some of the changes, especially in and around the railway station/Station Hill.

No it's absolutely free if you simply, but a little too loudly, point out ( including an affirming index finger poked in his chest ) to a traffic officer late at night in central Edinburgh, that he might well be better employed catching drug dealers or something altogether more pressing, rather than fannying about bothering innocent motorists who may indeed have had a couple of tinctures that evening, but are still perfectly capable of driving to Barnton without any risk to the public. ( no not me, but I know a man who did...)

I suspect he may have included that had the conversation not been cut rather short.
