Thanks everyone for your welcomes, made my first visit back to Accy today, for what must be 13 years, people were brilliant as they always were, but hasn't the town centre changed ...... couldn't even find the Halifax BS at first ... ( remember it being on Blackburn road ), still it was great to be back..

hi geoff  I have very strong connections with both bash and lancaster my older brother  as lived up there ever since he got married to a bash lass of course in fact he was the landlord of the dog and partridge pub for a while but that was a few years ago as regards the lancaster  connection my wifes sister and family live there up on abraham heights and the road leading up there from the lights in the city  centre is a disgrace everyone up there must have three cars thank god the traffic in accy is not like that

Happy New Year Ossygobin and everyone. It's a great site, makes you feel very welcome.
Been to Accy twice now over the Christmas period, keep this up and I'll have to move back ...
Keith-- We used to go in the Dog and Partridge quite a lot, but my local was really the Alma Inn just lower down, didn't have as far to stagger....
Know what you mean about Lancaster and it's traffic all too well, only go into the city when I have to, we live at Bolton le Sands, and find it far easier to drive further up to Kendal than sit for ages in the choked up one way system in Lancaster.
Nice to meet everyone, and hope you all have a terrific year ahead.

Geoff..

Keith, now you've got me thinking, if your brother lived on Birch Terrace, then I must know him, because we lived opposite, just 4 doors down from the Alma on Manchester Road. We left Accrington in about 1986, I had to go down Lincolnshire with my work, would he have been there before that...

Thanks Mik, I'm already enjoying the friendlyness, typical Accringtonian. Makes me proud I was born and bred there.

Keith, now you've mentioned some names, I do have a vague memory of them. It was the name Phillip Cooper that jogged my memory. I seem to remember them forming their group, but it's 17 years approx since we left bash, and my memory ain't like it used to be.
I'm going to pop down to Accy again in Feb with the family, my daughter wants to see where we used to live, she was only 3 when we left, but is a true Accringtonian, born in Accy Victoria hospital.

Regards
Geoff.
