´Meet You Under the Clock´!!
 I found this wonderful photo during my internet wanderings and although Accy buses were wonderful in their own right, I was more interested in the clock that you see in the background. That thing with black legs top left!
I don´t think it is still there now, but during the sixties it was the place to meet for teenagers hoping for a new romance. There you were, skirts showing your knickers, trying to feel confident and praying that matie would turn up!
After all, you only met him last night for a quick snog at Burnley Mecca! Could you even remember what he looked like!!
I was only ´stood up´ once and I ended up marrying him. It would be nice to know how many folk got hitched because of that clock.
Thanks Doug xx

At one time under the clock was "The Old Bank Cafe", - I remember it from early 70's cos my sister worked in there - was able to cadge some grub when owner wasn't about !!
