They created a mini street festival, brought in street entertainers, marching bands and musicians. Lots of hoopla and branded goods being thrown out, bunting and majorettes. They even brought the Barclay's Premiership Trophy down where you could queue to have your photo taken with it.
It was pretty impressive and a lot of fun but it did strike me that it was a bit OTT for something as mundane as a branch opening and in these credit crunch times did feel a little bit ostentatious - on the other hand you could say at least they were bringing some happiness to people on the street.
