Re: Food Festival 2011
 

Will they be charging to get in again?
I won't be going if they do, can't see why i have to pay to go in a shop, would you pay to go in Wilkinsons?
It might only be a quid but the stallholders should pay it not me

You are spot on Jay - it was on the right hand side going up Colne Rd just past Prestige (Platers & Stampers) - many a good night in there when an apprentice.:D

Re: Food Festival 2011
 

It was down the lane to the entrance to Thompson Park.

Sunday lunctimes were my particlaur favourite.

The Bank Hall old folks home on the main road across from Pretige is where I was born when it was the maternity hospital, so I might end up going full circle :D

Re: Food Festival 2011
 

There were some good nights in the burnley area in the 60s and 70s Annabel's, Cats, then there was a place in Colne was in a big house in its own grounds, think we've talked about it before on here but can't think of it's name for the life in me, used to go most friday nights too, must be loosing too many little grey cells:D

Re: Food Festival 2011
 

We came down to the Food Festival and Lynn really enjoyed it, Accrington looked great in the sunshine and I was talking to Sean Wilson (Martin Platt from Corrie) and by the way is the burger van outside the Market Hall the cheapest in the Country ?
Bacon barm cake, egg barm cake and a coffee £2.30 a real bargain, anyway thanks we had a great time
