Well there you go, that was on National TV. There are so many murders nationally these days that I bet they don't all make national TV.

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

I remember there was a murder on Garden Street many years ago and that caused quite a sensation at the time.

I also remember someone being accidentally shot in the stomach in Huncoat, at a bus...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

But to get back to the point about what we can be proud of. I think we sometimes take things for granted and don't really think about them until someone else mentions them. For instance the nature...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

Exactly my point about the threat of physical punishment being enough to put me off doing anything - or at least making sure I wasn't actually discovered doing anything. Not that I'm admitting boring...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

I totally agree with you about the Ofsted inspections. They don't get a proper impression of the school anyway. And yes it's often a struggle to manage on far less equpiment than would be ideal and...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

We've had a Mela or two before without problems. If this was racist motivated then perhaps the people who did it don't realise that it isn't only Asians who enjoy a Mela. It should be an opportunity...

I may be naive but when I read Darby's post it sounded more in praise of Kipax to me.

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

That was why I was wondering if what I was typing about the Coppice was appropriate and then when I'd posted it I saw that Ceejache had just beat me to it and also mentioned the Coppice.

My...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

To get back to the subject of the thread. Sometimes it's easier to be critical of the place where we live not because we dislike it but because we are proud of it and want it to be at its best so...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

Well that was why I said about the free parking because it's something I've felt proud of Accy for. So far this town hasn't given in to the ways of other towns and started charging for parking cars....

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

I'm not really sure what you are looking for Doug and Ceejache. The Haworth Art Gallery and its Tiffany Glass collection is perhaps something which could be considered to attract visitors to the...

Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?

I didn't say just one car park Doug. ALL the car parks in Accrington are free and how on earth can you fail to find the main one which is a multi story situated on top of the Arndale? (There are...
