Today the big thaw is really kicking in and I find myself in durham taking my daughter back to university. It is tipping it down but not in the metro centre which for short while was the largest shopping centre in Europe.
What is perhaps more surprising is that it was built with church finances partly as a contribution to regnerating the area.
I'm not sure we would do this now but I'm not sure why. Perhaps it's too risky, or perhaps other people are now leading. Needless to say the church is no longer an investor in shopping malls... Which is probably a good thing... I wonder if we could make a church in a shopping mall?
