Re: Meteor tonight over Accrington

Thanks, good to know I wasn't imagining it! There was only one that I could see, not a cluster like on the news. Still, the ones better than none!

Re: Pictures of Warner Street/Bank Street/Oak Street?

Thanks for the replies, for some reason all the Warner Street photos seem to concentrate on the lower part of the street not the upper. Maybe the hill puts people off! I didn't notice the other...

Re: Who wants a Tory Government?

Re: Whats happening to your UK Christmas?

This is fine example of the snowball effect. Once one council or organisation sets a precedent others follow. The main fear is of prosecution under racial equality laws or of being accused of...

Re: Anyone Go to St. Christopher's C of E High?

LOL Dean, some things dont change! I left 19 years ago and the same thing seemed to happen to us then. No investment for years and as soon as we leave a big cash pot opens up!

Re: Accrington - Tourist Area?

The occupants of Hyndburn Council Chamber ( regardless of political preference ) have failed over the years to grasp what Accrington is about. They have always tried to compete...

Re: Arrgh!
