LOCAL CINEMAS-SUPPORT THEM!

kelburnIm still currently working on rate my cinema and I was getting info on all the the cinema chains (small and large) in UK and some Irish) and getting customer service info etc, and when I was looking through the small cinema chains, I was just so jealous why? I live in town which has a multiplex cinema but it wasnt always like that. My hometown of Paisley 10 miles west of Glasgow right up to mid 1990’s the towns cinema was The Kelburn which was located on Glasgow Road about 5 minutes walk east out the town centre. Glasgow road was the main road which goes straight through the town, a major bus route so it was easy to get to the cinema by bus or foot (10minutes).

Rate My Cinema update

Rate My Cinema is just taking a little longer than expected simply due to my college work. My college finished its academic year last week but ive has a few odds and ends to finish off first.

Ive just finished off the last part of my college work today and from tomorrow I will get right back to project. I have completed about 50% of the questions and looking at them it’s turning out to be a little bigger than I expected. So I am creating a webpage for this blog (address URL coming soon) and it would best for the Rate My Cinema project to be included on this webpage rather than on the blog. I will however promote the project on this blog, with updates, information, etc…… I do hope to have the Rate My Cinema page up in running sometime in the next 7 to 10 days with the actual webpage by end of June or July.

If you have any questions on this project please dont hesitate to get in touch.
