kent_white Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 We used to go in the Farnworth one years ago at lunchtime. It was hilarious entertainment My mind can scarcely concieve the horror.... :-) Quote

MalcolmW Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Sportspages on Barton Sq in Manc, used to spend ages browsing through footy books and fanzines, but the place sadly shut a few years ago. I used to go there every few months. Always bought more than I intended, and looked at plenty more. I knew it had been taken over, but when I 'went' there again it had disappeared. Even retraced my steps and approached from the other side, but a coffee shop was in its place. [internet sales are fine, but browsing is not so convenient.] Quote
HR Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Centre isle of Lidl has lots of items I never knew I needed. Remote controlled barometers and wetsuits or even an electric frying pan can be owned for the good folk who have a sense of adventure. King of the castle til you get home and think 'what the fook have I just bought?' Quote
Smiffs Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 I can spend hours wandering around Stax and CWBerry in Leyland. Quote

[internet sales are fine, but browsing is not so convenient.] Been looking on google earth, it was Barton Arcade off St Anne's Sq, i think the coffee shop is a clothes shop now, i used to end up buying loads of breeden books when it was Sportspages.
