If you were aware of the world around you and not have this apparent fixation on Gayle, you would realise that the majority of contiributors to Accyweb do not agree with you. I happen to live in Brittany which is in France, as I openly declare - observation is a real attribute which is something else you appear to be lacking.

You ask what I would like to see in the centre of Accrington - what is needed? do Bury, and Blackburn, and Burnley and Doncaster need to have these entertainments to attract shoppers? No, they need a vibrant market with lots of shops around them - widen your horizons, look how succesful they are.
I realised almost 50 years ago that there was a wider world out there, so I went and experienced it, Eastabouts to Hong Kong and Westabouts to LA - but still consider Accrington my home town and will soon return to the area. I will also continue to voice my opinion as to the waste of public money, be it local or national purse.

so accy is that great that you had to get out of it
