Nats Funeral


Recommended Posts

Just booked half day off so finishing at 11.30 and will have to get the train from Victoria. I doubt thats gonna be enough time, is it 12 or half past?

 

A reliable source posted on Facebook that they are starting off at the town hall at 11.45 aiming to be at the church for 12.30.

To anyone in two minds about going on wednesday ask yourself this - how would you feel if fewer people turned out for Nat than for fred Dibnah ?

 

"Fred Dibnah?s funeral procession was one of the biggest events that the people of Bolton and Lancashire have ever seen. The town centre streets were lined three and four deep as this ?Son of Bolton?, with his oily cap set proudly on top of his coffin, made its way through the streets, being pulled by his own treasured steam tractor and well decorated trailer."
