Costa - It is good news for the town

Why all the doom and gloom about their opening.

They open early in the morning and, at last, we’ll have something open in town on a Sunday.

The very same people who are claiming our town is ‘dying on its feet’ are the ones who are opposed to a national company - yes, a national company - setting up shop.

Of course, there is now competition to other businesses, but isn’t that what life is about.

Perhaps Costa might just encourage other companies to fill some of the empty buildings.
