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

Isn't that odd. I have lived here almost the whole of my life and yet it is only when I joined accyweb that I learned about Dr. Lovelace's Famous Floating Soap.

I have to say that I have never understood the urge to teach either. It seems to me to be a thankless task. More so these days when TV and the printed media are stuffing childrens heads with the...

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

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

I have noticed that according to The Observer, the police attribute the cause of the Rhyddings Park vandalism to underage drinking, adding that there are a number of teenagers in the area who’s...
