Cosmo Preston reader reaction: “I think we all be gonna waiting a very long time”

Award-winning banquet Cosmo Authentic World Kitchen which offers an array of cuisines to customers all over the UK announced in 2012 it was opening a site in Preston.

And the following year a billboard poster announcing Preston Cosmo was “coming soon” appeared in the window of a shop in Church Street but despite the lengthy build-up, there is still no sign of it.

Here is a selection of Post readers’ thoughts on the 10 year delay.
