Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?
I have to agree with Tealeaf on this one. I think that all contributors to this thread have in some way misinterpreted postings. That's one of the problems with the written word in comparison with the spoken word.
If Tealeaf sits on the fence, then he sits at an awkward angle, and gives it full throttle when necessary. Ceejache, Willow and Doug all appear to give their own honest opinions, and I for one respect them for their courage, honesty, and intentions. Kipax (bless his little cotton socks), Dry Gulches everyone, but he has his dignity and his opinions and I respect his right to say his bit, even if I disagree with him.
I feel the intention of the thread was well meant, but some responses went in different directions (that appears to be the norm on most sites as well). Accrington (and district...I'm not keen on the term Hyndburn), has its own "charm" and its own "characters", good or bad, like 'em or hate 'em. That's Accy!
Some of the ideas and views expressed were interesting and if you look closely, provide us with an insight into our own personalities and the way in which we think, especially about our environment.
So, as far as I'm concerned....carry on....it makes very interesting reading!!!
