a vehicle for advertising or promotion  - yeah right;-) 

 anyway i apologise its just that i am a little pissed at so called academics trying to ruin mine and Jims article on Drake Circus - we are one of the UK's leading shopping centres and i fail to see why we should take second place to some boring crap about bomb shelters, musuems or Joshua Reynolds ?!!! this is not what people want - when they search for Drake Circus they do not want to be reminded of the second world war or how many kids were killed there - they want access to the latest fashions and accessories - which only Drake Circus can provide.
