This Town Is Coming Like A Ghost Town...

What's going on? Had to venture into our Town Centre yesterday, Cattle Market has bit the dust, The York was shut and on Bradshawgate, all the block from the Bookies on the corner to the old BMW place is empty (Including The Leena - no great loss, the new indian restaurant up the road is good).

 

Over the road the news stand that's been there since forever has also shut up shop. Perhaps the declining sales of 'toddy mags', due to the internet, was the final nail in the coffin?

 

Is this sommat to do with the new bus/rail interchange they're planning? It's going to be almost as welcoming as the current 'Gateway to Bolton' (you know, the one way street leading out of town...)

 

It's embarrassing when the likes of Bury and even Wigan, are showing us up as a right shithole.

Absolutely. Neither name inspire, but Fook me Alan is the most boring name I can think of. Are there any good Alans or the equally dull spelled way of Allen?

Most town centres aren't what they were.

 

From what Bolton was, to what it has become is staggering.

 

It's been hit worse than any town in lancs/gt Manc IMO.

 

Grim.
