OVER the last few weeks a couple of rough sleepers have take up residence in the doorway of the old Bacchus wines and spirit shop in Goodramgate.
Having seen the police and special police in conversation with them on several occasions, they had appeared to like the vista of the street and had decided to stay.
This morning, walking down Goodramgate I noted that the recessed doorway has been boarded up. Just in time for the Christmas lights turning on, and sanitising the view for the expected throng of shoppers.
And it’s just in time for the bad weather. So this is Christmas, “I hope you have fun”.
