Shocking news :ermmm

Arena Leisure have stated the council will not sort out an extension on the lease .... not surprising, the lease still has another 17 years to run :doh ... so what's Arena's problem? :anerikke: .... and they are closing down Folkstone because the local council won't allow them to build a few houses ..... that one seems to be a but of blackmail against the council :thumbsdown:
