Pub Signs
I've just passed a pub in Bury that still had the old Thwaites neon sign,, you know the one that flashes alternate "Thwaites" "A1 Ales". Now I haven't seen one those for years, there used to be one on the wall of the Victoria on Manchester Rd. Does anyone know of any others still in existence?
