Shall we rename this thread "Handbags at 20 paces" and start another one about what we think is good about Accrington and its districts?

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

Bloody hell, I only went out for an hour..............I hope that we do now move on. On the question "What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud" Maybe it's a broad spectrum of opinion that counts. We all have one, but we don't always agree, but currently we have the freedon to express them.

I don't like the term Racist, its a term used by people who don't want to work on equal terms with those around them "in my opinion" Its over used and its starting to loose its impact. Time will tell.

Until then perhaps we could find a way of insluting each other in less hurtful terms, because I'm sure someone will be hurt by this....

Any chance of both of you coming on the 31st?

Sorry Doug, I would love to have a few beers with all on the site. But it's just a bit too far.....and my grandson arrives that day. Besides, I only just got back from London last night. But sometime I'll get to another one, and I'll bring a bottle of Schnapps with me for all to sample!
Thanks for the thought!

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

I'll tell you what Accrington as a community has to be proud of:-

Englands wealth was built on the back of the North-of-England working man. That is an indisputible fact. Lancashire and Yorkshire (for all their competitiveness) were the industrial might on which this country flourished. Accrington played a great part in this revolution. Factories like H & B, Broad Oak etc. were part of the big money-spinning era. Leyland Motors was another great company not too far away. Unfortunately, the profits from these great companies ended up in London with the central government and that is why the South is so much better 'looked-after' than the North. Let us never forget that our parents and grandparents were a part of that revolution. As well as doing all that, they went and fought, and won, two world wars as well.

You can't keep good people down. Accrington still has plenty of those, some of them post on this site. I am proud to be able to say that I come from such a place, even though, through no fault of its own, it has been in decline for many years. It is the fault of successive governments who have done nothing to help, but have depleted the manufacturing industries on which this country was built. I am also proud to have orginated from the great gene pool that is East Lancashire.

That's my two-pennorth anyway.
