Economic development reckon the event brought over 100,000 into the town centre with the visits, revisits, word of mouth etc which is much needed and appreciated.
The 'credit crunch' hasn't effected us in the Borders too badly (its been mostly the nationals who have shut) although the rumour is that many of the independents are being kept going by the banks who are hoping for a good Christmas period, if that doesn't materalise, the first quarter could be bleak for many.
However, we have had some great responses which kind of makes all the soakings and late nights worth while [:)]
