BWFC777 Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 bullshit, its you council wankers and labour voting mayor lovers that have fucked this town up well said !!!!!! Quote
BWFC777 Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Yes Youri, I'm related to two officers and they want nothing for the best for our town, dedicated to the hilt what have they done for this town BB? sweet fuckin adams ! Quote
THunter Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Sometimes on match day I walk to the station via Rice'nThree and Chicken Kebab. If there's a better £3.20 to be spent anywhere I'd like to know. I could probably buy the bottom end of Bradshawgate for that Boozers wise Wetherspoons is alright, Barristers, Man & Scythe (out of towners love the M&S) and I'll probably get crucified for saying it but the Dog & Partridge is very good for a beer. Good ale and no knobheads. Don't see why you'd get cruicified. Decent boozer and one that's done more than its fair share to keep live music going. The council want to bulldoze it. Quote

Good ale and no knobheads. After about 6-7pm Harvey's is full of no-one, wankers or not. Even in there is sliding too, as if to conform with the rest of town - they've had a ripped leather settee for ages now. If it's still there come late October, I'm sending my nephew in, to ask them if he can have it for his 'bommy' (perhaps I'm one of the wankers and don't realise?) I'm with you on Rice n Three, though prefer a seekh kebab sandwich (see 'Traffic' thread), Same goes for the pubs you mention - not been in Dog and Partridge for years, though it used to be one of the few places in/near town you could have a game of pool (without nobhead intervention) last time I was in it was doing Warsteiner on draught. So, we've got a handful of pubs/bars and a kebab/curry cafe (that shuts at half five) - the new indian (next to the old Cannon Cinema/Studio 1,2,3) is pretty good also, but not cheap, so that'll probably last about 5 minutes. It's never been a metropolis, but recently (well, the past 7-8 years) I've come to be ashamed of it. At one point, when Red on the Square, Revolution, Spinning Mule and the other one on Nelson Square next to Spinning Mule (before it went shite - can't remember it's original name) etc. had just opened, I thought we were on an upward spiral...How wrong I was. One last thing, if Bella Pizza ever shuts up shop (not that it's very good) we'll know that's it for the town centre, that place really is the commercial canary in the cage.

Burndens Bogs Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Harvey's is alright. Though if you mention a decent pub/bar on here plenty will say "it's full of wankers". It's full of wankers...........................decent bar though Quote
BWFC777 Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 it's full of not rights who wear pola neck sweaters and pretendabe whoo ray henrys Quote
no balls Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) I suppose it could be worse. It could be full of pretentious hooray Henrys. Edited July 7, 2012 by no balls Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 He's right you know, they congregate there before going for a row or punt on the Croal, or a few games of tennis on Queen's Park. I couldn't give a shit who goes in there - I can sup and hold forth with beggar or king... Quote

Smiley Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 But at least we have a top flight football team to be proud of.................. oops, we've even fucked that up as well. Quote

The thing is, you probably do give a shit who goes in there as a pub atmosphere is largely due to it's clientele. Folk who are up their own arse may be annoying, but at least they have all their own teeth/veneers and dont smell of piss/ciggies (on the whole). Quote
Casino Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 i've been in bury this afternoon heaving and sunny its fair share of 'rough' types but a pretty pleasant experience Quote
jayjayoghani Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 The council want to bulldoze it. Aye fair point. There's nigh on hundreds of buidings should be in the queue before that Quote
no balls Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 i've been in bury this afternoon heaving and sunny its fair share of 'rough' types but a pretty pleasant experience I've been on the Middlebrook this afternoon. Sunny & no kids on skate boards or people walking aimlessly either, which is a bonus. I even got a wink and a smile off a GILF Quote

I quite like slumming it, not with piss-smelling, shouty folk - but there are a few pubs where you get a mix of pisscans of all classes/levels of intelligence etc. Without sounding chauvinistic, Harvey's is one of the two, or possibly three, places I'd be comfortable taking a girl out for a drink though.

DazBob Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I live in the town centre, on the site of Silverwell St sports centre. Me and the neighbours are all a pretty respectable bunch. Mixed bag of age groups too. Aye I dont disagree it's a shithole but there's certain advantages. Public transport to Manchester, and round Bolton, convenience of shopping and if you're choosy where you go for a drink, you can have a good night. I dont miss the beauty of a Bolton taxi queue either. And to be quite honest, there arent many suburbs of Bolton I'd prefer to live in. I too live in town and it's perfect for me. I can have a semi-unconscious bird back at mine from any of the bars/clubs within a couple of mins... and if I pick the correct route, past no CCTV cameras either. You can't be too careful these days. The only thing I miss is a garden, but I've plenty of mates with those for the very, very odd occasion when we might have a nice weekend. Quote

Ghana White Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Have you thought of working for the morecambe tourist board anewman? I reckon that could be the new slogan Quote
