Yep. Can't be having things like that going on in shitty old Cov.You'll be lucky half off here would love to see it burn down.
On my to do list.Only on till 22nd I went round today what a wonderful building
If it were built today the interior would cost a fortune fine wood panelling not your mdf crap. The private apartment is huge including hidden drinks cabinet which you will only find if you're shown.On my to do list.
Yes last day is next Sunday really well worth a visitIs It open at the weekend? Would like to have a look around. I think there is a short film on the move to Northampton too.
Just turn up and walk roundSounds like something I would like to do.
How does it work.....do you just rock up and get shown around or do you have to book in?
Thing is Nick that is probebly the most honest thing you have ever saidMe, Tim and Les walked round it like this.
On a serious note, I've seen some photos and it looks quite interesting.

Just got back from this. I have to say that I didn't realise how big this place was. It is like a factory. I would think that anyone who worked here would be sad to see what was once obviously a vibrant place run down and neglected. During its heyday the CET must have been a fairly big employer to have occupied such a big space.It is also sad what has become of local newspapers. During the late eighties and the nineties I lived in Birmingham and so the only easy access to Sky Blues news was on the radio but this was very limited, particularly as CWR was killed off and so City news was on WM. Working in Chelmsley Wood I wasn't too far from Birmingham airport and also International station.. Being the saddo that I am, I would frequently travel out to one ot the other, park in a pull in outside the concourse (couldn't do that now!) and dash in and buy a copy of the CET to find out what was going on. Many supporters will remember pre internet and radio days when the CET was virtually the only source of news on the City. I know a good few on here will welcome the demise of The Telegraph but for me they were always our football club's paper. Walking around today, seeing the place that reporters like Derek Henderson and Neville Foulger worked, where no doubt Jimmy Hill would have visited, left me feeling sad too.
I enjoyed the film on the Sixfields fiasco but failed to appreciate the art work.
If you are thinking of going, Nick, you're too late. Last day today.Is it on the whole something an 8 year old would be interested in?
Probebly not......Is it on the whole something an 8 year old would be interested in?
Ah! Will find something else for holiday time then!If you are thinking of going, Nick, you're too late. Last day today.
I saw one mum with a child, but guessing the girl was about 11.
Popped in y'day afternoon and TARDIS was the exact description I used when txting my brother. I was amazed by the enormity of the place. The art was a bit hit and miss with me but the actual building and the concept in using it's vacancy to showcase the work was a winner.Went today and the first thing I said was that it was like the TARDIS!
Favourite piece was all the photos of people at art galleries on their phones. They go to the gallery to see the art, but no-one is viewing the art because they are on their mobiles.
