Lap of shame - this section doesn't say what the lap of shame is!? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.31.245.102 (talk) 11:04, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Seconded: Explanation needed. Maybe I'll add a tag to that effect... --BjKa (talk) 11:39, 16 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Industry and Commerce[edit]

The town has seen a large expansion in retail since 1980.

Removing large chunks with spurious reasons is not a good idea. Please discuss before removing again. Esemgee (talk) 13:46, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I second that. Rupples (talk) 21:26, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
