Other towns' forums

[Bob Dobson]

I am aware of forums, similar to this one, for Blackburn, Bolton , Rossendale & Preston. Which other Lancashire towns have them? Are any as well used as ours?

Preston's used to be 'Prestone' which began as only for the use of the local bands, acts and entertainers, but then became a forum like this one-for discussions, advice, general community. I was a moderator on it and am friends with the owner of it-who decided in the end that he couldn't be bothered with it any longer!It's a real shame as it was very popular, I loved it!
Another guy I know set up 'P-Town', which is totally dead most of the time-I may have a look at it now but it's just not as good and nobody bothers with it really.

I am on the Leeds one which is not as user-friendly as this one (my opinion only) but is popular and always has a lot of traffic.
I'm not sure about anywhere else.

Despite no longer frequenting Accrington and only ever doing so briefly, I love this forum!
I know I'm not as active as some, not able to join in the discussions based around growing up in Accrington, or the local sites, etc, but I do.

Thanks sugar.
I am a member on Blackburn 247. Has the Burnley forum folded?

Burnley was very hit and miss, with hindsight they should have combined with Rossendale IMHO

I'm told there is a Gt Harwood yahoo forum. I haven;t yet been able to access it

The current trend tends to be Facebook Group based stuff.

Leyland has one which is quite well used.
