That gorilla was for sale (the Mrs said no) but in bad condition. I believe it's been broken up as I've seen swatches of its fir for sale along with a photo.
Last week a water main burst & flooded the shops basements in Victoria Rd. And yes, you've guessed it, they dug up the newly resurfaced road. You couldn't make it up.
The museum has closed and the exhibits have "disappeared". Hopefully Jackie & Dennis can gather sufficient memorabilia to put on a lovely display for the fans to view.
