BTW does anyone know what happens at the old In and Out these days? Have the Japanese moved in from next door?

A property tycoon bought the building in 1996 for £50m, planning to turn it into a six-star hotel. Planning permission was granted but it's remained unoccupied ever since - except for security staff and as a car-park for a few of the owner's cars.
It was put on the market about a year ago for a rumoured £250m; I don't know if it was sold.
It now looks run-down and shabby. A pity, it's a magnificent building.
