Inside the Leicester High Cross Apple store
Life starts to come back to normal. Back in the centre of Leicester for the first time since July last year. Seeing the demographic of Leicester actually reflected in the profile of the customers of this shop.
Signs of the times? A group of adults plus seemingly feral children bashing the computers and other equipment. Adults shouting abuse at the Apple staff because they cannot be seen immediately - complete with expletives, Security staff seen cowering in the background. Apple staff trying to explain that appointments are available. To no avail. Very scary.
Apple Genius Ali rescues the situation and me. Feels as if my earlier posting on the demographic was premature.
