LOCAL HABITAT UNDER THREAT

No don't worry, it's not a real habitat with anything living in it, just the building that used to house the Canterbury branch of Habitat. Back in the summer, there was a sudden surge of activity as building contractors begain to pick away at the building, eventually pulling its guts out and removing all trace of what  once was.

Sadly all that is opening there is a new Aldi store, but in honour of this momentous occasion, here is a selection of photographs chronicling the wiping out of this rare species of over-priced house tat. Needless to say, I stopped taking photos when the destruction stopped...

Chances are the opening day of the new Aldi will attract more people than the Police commissioner elections....
