I was driving back from Andy’s earlier — gave him a lift home to Penilee after a chilled weekend with ade and qif — and I decided to stop in Asda for a couple of odds and sods. On the way out, I spotted a billboard beside the Tryst car park, announcing the new development for Cumbernauld’s Town Centre complex. It’s apparently going to be called the Antonine Shopping Centre, after the nearby Antonine Wall, and the billboard has a web address at the bottom — www.antoninecumbernauld.co.uk.

So there’s me driving past, noticing the billboard, then the web address, thinking, “cool, I’ll check that out when I get home as there’ll be some stuff on the site about the build, the prospective tenants, the timescales, and so on.” I get home, I make clicky on the web address for the new centre, and instead of all the things I expected, I got a replica of the billboard with the words THIS SITE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION added. For all the time it would have taken to chuck a press release up there, something they obviously did for the Noddy News. Tch.

  1. What the hell is this website!!! I found it through Google. Good point though about the centre website.

  2. what the hell is *this* website? it’s my website, that’s what it is – who the hell are you? πŸ™‚
