Weekend Round-Up

Here's what we've learned this weekend whilst you've been Googling gazebos:

Apparently following the *success* of their G20 policing, the Met are considering introducing harsher methods. Ahem.

Alistair Darling has been feigning optimism for the City's (immediate) future.

New York rates our skate board culture.

Trinity Square is to be converted into a whirling vortex of a hotel.

Harvey Nicks is to woo younger shoppers. Not that we needed any further deterring.

Lisson Grove and Church Street Market are to get a much needed lick of paint.
