The admin of one of the Facebook pages is seriously anti anything to do with the SIJ campaign, or anyone who didn't like CoE. They've deleted posts that show negative attitudes towards the new series, but left absuive comments from some of the other fans towards the campaign up. It makes me so cross.
But you're right about it being a tourist draw. I want to do an essay on the importance of community attractions and pilgrimage, and the shrine will be one of the things I point at (along with cairns on hilltops and the Royal wedding)
