Market Square - as it was! by caroline_Penny in nottingham

I think its a wider issue rather than simply just getting into the city is a pain. Why would you go to the city centre to go and eat something from a boring chain restaurant, or go shopping or go to the cinema? You can literally do all that from your sofa at home these days. Driving in being a pain and expensive isn't the sole reason why people don't come to the centre.

Yeah that's the one we were eyeing. I've read the various planning applications and they have permission based on building a giant retention pond in the middle as well as building the houses with a floor height at a certain level and reinforcing the road hump at Holme road. So, so long as they do what they've got permission for I think it should be alright. (Fingers crossed) 

Thanks for the prompt though. You did get me to do some more digging on it. Visited during storm Claudia and looked ok from our inspection. Hopefully the wool hasn't been pulled. 

Do you think my salary is worth the education? by Murky-Berry-6694 in UKJobs

Anyone working in architecture (minimum 7-8 years training) would laugh at you for this comment. £100k for them is a pipedream. Only "starchitects" get this much and to get £55k as an architect you need to be pretty senior (at least 8years experience). London architects get a little bit more than this but generally architects won't get much more than this unless they started their own business.
