    Sad. But then again I haven't been there for ages. I remember going on the chairlift, the submarine. Seeing the wakeboarding on the lake. The market stalls themselves I didn't think much of. Ok if you were after some software or hardware. Plants.

    • very sad, i work across the road from there. During the best times they were open 3 days a week and only cut back opening to the Wednesday and Sunday just recently.

  • Honestly, as long as the rollerrama stays open I'm cool with it.

    RIP to the place where we got our WII with a chip or whatever in it though. I think in the last few years it wasn't as great

    • I dont think rollerrama is the same company as gardens and markets.

    I remember wandering barefoot around the stalls wondering how many bootleg CDs they could sell. Ah memories…
