Help from any Leeds folk?
I could do with a bit of help from a Leeds local….
I'm not from Leeds, but I'm living here Monday - Friday every week and I haven't really got my bearings outside of the city centre shops and the A58
Can anyone tell me exactly how many, and what shops are at Clarence Dock (apart from Tesco).
I've looked on the website which is rubbish, everyone I've asked if pretty vague about the shops and after a quick drive past in the pouring rain I couldn’t actually see any sign of shops… and I didn't have my purse on me so I couldn't go in to the multi storey to get out and have a look!

Clarence dock was meant to be this fantastic area full of shops and cafe's just outside the city centre. In reality the credit crunch hit and the shops there soon started to disappear. It's still a nice enough area with the canal system etc a few shops and places to eat.
give us a shout if you need more detailed info

As said, a bit of a dead donkey area. the shops still there are limping along towards closure, but a pleasant setting. Don't pay to park as there are spaces on the road around the outside and the multi-story is pricey. You could park free (3hr limit) on Crown Point (not as pretty but better/more/busier shops) and walk over to Clarence for a nosey.

I just want to know what shops are exactly there, before I waste my time going looking
I'm currently living in the Marriott, so any excuse for getting out the hotel and shopping is fine by me

I do have my own breakfast plate for the buffet 
I only want to know what shops are there though. 
The Victoria quarter isn't really my cup of tea shops wise. There's only a couple at a push I like.
I've been here for a fair while, and been here for 6 month before and I even come down for shopping when I'm back up at home so I have my favourite shops, just intrigued by Clarence Dock.

Theres quite a few tatoo places near the corn exchange, can't recommend any of them though as never used them, would be worth having a look through the windows and making your choice i guess.
p.s welcome to Leeds

I can't see the picture and I cant google for one at work either
Underneath my bra straps, at the front. nearer to my armpits than the centre line.
If that makes sense, not that it really matters anyhow
