The parent company of Gaming International is called Toklon and the transfer of control of this company from Clarke to Susan Thomas and Eloise Osbourne was registered yesterday. There has previously been a substantial amount of debt noted in the group of companies which largely seems to have been satisfied. As at the end of June last year, the total assets of the group were a meagre £44k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if Osborne hasn't laid foundations for the next attempt to redevelop the Abbey. As before, they'll be the only foundations that will get laid!

SteveArena Posted Thursday at 06:43 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:43 PM What will happen to Studley Grange? 2 of the original people behind the planning application are brown bread now. I suppose they will scrap the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose they will scrap the idea. It was always just a cover story to try and tick NPPF leisure replacement requirements and gain planning permission for houses on the Abbey. I would imagine Steve Park will eventually dissolve Swindon Motorsports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
