I've always been intrigued by the presence of the John Lewis West Quay Service Building on West Quay Rd (here: https://goo.gl/maps/49evTggMeCM2 - opposite the road exit from the WestQuay Retail Park). There seem to be multiple entrances for lorries to discharge cargo, and presumably a sort of warehouse space inside for storage of goods until they are needed on the shop floor.
The question is...how does stuff get from the service building to the actual John Lewis shop in WestQuay? It'd seem pointless to unload the goods from lorries into that warehouse, just to load them into lorries again to do the short trip to WestQuay. So, is there some other way of transporting them?
I've heard rumours that there might be a tunnel connecting them...although I imagine one might be difficult to construct as all the land there is reclaimed from the sea.
Does anyone know anything about this? Or know anyone who works at John Lewis that they could ask?

Personally I'm a fan of any development that will benefit the city. And hope this does. I'm just a bit surprised that they're opening a cinema with Odeon and Cineworld being in close proximity.
The first restaurant to sign up to the new development is 5 Guys though and I heard their burgers are pretty amazing.
If you don't know much about the development, you can check it out here... http://www.westquaywatermark.com/default.aspx

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
