Call me what you will but I was glad there were no rides etc in town. Shopping this time of year is stressfull and expensive enough having to drag the littles ones around, could you imagine the nagging id have got if there were rides etc, it would be mummy mummy mummy non stop

Yes Cashy, but the loudmouthed yobs were around in some numbers - can't understand why they talk so loud when standing next to the recipient of their views. Once thought it was because parents etc had worked in the weaving sheds or spinning rooms - don't think many of them exist anymore - upset thst Santa's Grotto in the Market Hall was closed.
