scallywell Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 One of the best in the country so I hear,got a mention on that Saturday breakfast a while back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_spencer Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Yes, yes and thrice yes. My recomendations are the Cider slushy's, the jerk chicken patties, and the jack daniels fudge and if you like torture go see the chilli jam guys and try a bit of their hottest stuff i couldnt see straight for a good 20 minutes.

Youri McAnespie Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Is there a feral pigeon stall,hosted by a family of Albanians?? Have you been listening to this bloke? (I bet no-one gets that reference). Anyhow, I thought the pigeon snaffling scene had been explained already?

This'll be the first time I've been in Bolton for a good while so I hope it's a good do It's free to park in the 3 council/ncp owned multi storeys on saturdays and sundays. I imagine the octagon will be full but the one at topp way or the one behind the new colleges should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Carlos Posted August 21, 2014 Moderators Share Posted August 21, 2014 Ironic that food outlets are/were the only reason to venture into the centre and they are taking business of them. I don't see what's in it for Bolton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see what's in it for Bolton. The boltonian food places have stalls on the festival and its a chance to show their business to people who didn't know about them. Yes there's companies from elsewhere but a fair chunk of the stalls are from local businesses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
