I love how the people in the gym look nothing like the sports shop window figures :) , lovely urban scene though nuno, caught the glow of the lights well.

Thanks. I was a bit afraid the combination of wildly different lighting would be impossible to handle but the spot meter kept saying I was between 1 and 3 stops for each window, which is OK to handle with a single film image.
Came out much better than I expected! :-)

I thought as I viewed it that the metering was superb, I have tried myself to do late night shopping centers and it sends my camera in to a fit, the results are usually horribly off, I wish I could afford to use film more, but developing costs are high over here, I keep looking at the spare room and oh my do I have plans lol.

You should be OK with digital for stuff like this.
Need to change the metering to spot or centre-weighted, then switch to manual or use exposure lock.
With most of my digital cameras when the shutter button is pressed half-way down, the exposure locks. So, I can scan around the frame with the camera until I see a lighting that works overall, then hold the shutter halfway, reframe and fire away.
It all depends on what each camera lets you do.
One thing to remember: most digital cameras without a dedicated spot meter position will tend to overexpose the shot. You'll not get the "atmosphere" look. Just use the exposure compensation and give it between -0.5 and -1 and you should be able to get the same effect.
