Now isn't that a
positive vision of Lancashire?
Most northern towns have similar problems to the ones you have pointed out so positively.
Here are a few positives you might like to mull over.
The Howarth Art Gallery.Especially the collection of Tiffany Glass.
The warmness of the people.(we only whine when there is something to whine about, and we can do nothing practical about it)
The proximity of green countryside - notably the Ribble Valley.
Some lovely architecture(though not the council building on Broadway).
Some beautiful public parks(Oakhill, Mercer, Gatty to name but a few).
Maybe there are some others that members could add.
Is that positive enough for you?
