The Credit Crunch

Is it me, or am I just imagining it? I got off the train yesterday at Central Station, and walked through to St John's precinct. Town felt really empty. I have never seen St John's precinct and market so empty on a Saturday! I also was later by Lewis's and Central station, and had the same feeling of a lack of shoppers. I have never known town to be so empty on a Saturday only 11 weeks before Christmas. Has the new Liverpool 1 shopping development moved the shoppers to that side of town , or are we seeing the real tangible effects of the credit crunch?

I think it is just you. The papers are full of wonderment about the growth in shopping in town. I expect you just hit a quiet moment.
I hope so too!
