IT COMES as no surprise to me that the York Arts Arena is quitting the city's De Grey Rooms. I was the treasurer of the York Model Railway Society in the early Nineties when we used to hold two model railway shows a year at the De Grey Rooms.
Unfortunately, the weekend rental rate increased year on year to such an extent that the venue became uneconomic. No doubt we were replaced by other clients such as the York Arts Arena.
My only question is what happens to the 'underused' De Grey Rooms when the supply of fatted calves expires?
