...at short notice we are spending the weekend in Derby (long story). Is there anywhere worth going for some *interesting* shopping? Ideally somewhere that sells decent boots. | |

It's not interesting that way but if you would like to step back in time go to Bennetts for afternoon tea and sit on the first floor balcony. It's always the hangnails of life that drag you down | |

Did you find any shopping places? If so, listing them may be useful for other people. Why don't cash machines have a Gamble button? | |

essentially no lol ...however I did find a very interesting place that might be suitable for events. The father-in-law took me to a model railway exhibition there on Sunday. I don't really know how to describe the place other than a barracks with a central meeting hall with kitchen, some static caravans and a lot of outdoor space all of which is well hidden by trees from prying eyes. Apparently in the run-up to the 1980 Moscow olympics there was a some sort of controversy that the Russians thought the place was being used as a training camp for spies. Certainly has a WW2/cold-war feel to the site. Edited 14 Sep 10, 9:20 AM by latexlovers | |

Yes also the home of an annual bike rally each summer which Ive attended. The idea of an event there has been mooted in the past. If we could get 800 + Fet ppl with caravans and tents for a whole weekend as the rally does though, its a large and expensive place to hire it could make for an interesting gathering
