Town Centre Latest

Just had a meeting on Churchgate. Sad to see the Bolton News offices empty. And in a week or two the Travel Counsellors building opposite will be empty. Another 200+ people spending approx £20 per week on parking and lunches in the town... plus whatever other services they spend their hard-earned on - all being lost. Very sad state of affairs.

 

When will it get better? Should these empty offices be turned into apartments?

    The Food Hall has opened at Bolton Market. Had a mooch around. Didn’t buy anything but it both looks and smells good. Various stalls with a variety of foods and a small bar.  I’ve said previously, t

Comon how many other nationality friends have you got? This is fucking priceless. How the fuck you managed to ever get a shag in your life I’ll never know.

Where does @Johnny1990 stand on non-Asian Muslims?

Neither one thing, nor the other - are they allowed next door?

Did you enjoy the match?

There must be other stuff you care about 🥰

Yeah we are going to need to see those stats.

See, my Iranian friends have a chef, a gardener and 3 cleaners. Their house and gardens are immaculate.

So we’ll need full proven stats to back that up.

Im 100% sure you’ll have them.

Wait a min, you said Johnny was a relative of yours? Then you said it was Miami. Are you wrong…..again?

It’s a good question. I had a good childhood friend who was Asian but not Muslim. Used to support the whites, drink like a fish, usual lad stuff. So maybe it’s religion that I have a problem with. I still stand by the ghetto slums they create. I’ve even spoke in depth about it with Asian Muslim lads. And you know what they didn’t disagree. Some said their families are from shit holes back in Pakistan and it’s all they know.

I did enjoy the result but equally could have more fun bringing you down a peg or two.

I went to the crazy corner and tried to have  a fight with my gay barber. That makes me a better fan 

It’s a very weird ‘wind up’ to go on. Only seems to be triggering himself.

When a handsome chap sits so close, any red blooded human would notice.

I’d have said hello but you’d gone to catch your bus

New series of Oasthouse just landed on Audible.

The first two series were fckin brill

Done the first 3 chapters, and it's just as good as, if not better than, the first 2 Series so far. Fucking brilliant.

I work in an area with loads of Polish folk. They are hard working ace people and its a shame a lot left after brexit.

However they live in a part of town that's a fucking shit hole due to its cheap housing and proximity to employment. I wouldn't move there if I was homeless.

None of them are my friends and I wouldn't choose to mix with any of them as they probably dont like Bolton or pints in Thornton-Cleveleys.

Its not their fault the areas a shit hole, its just the affordable housing that landed them there.

Capiche?

Why did they leave after Brexit?

They get better money back home.

Again would you consider a house on Gibraltar street?

No as it's nowhere near where my family network is.

No family ties and I'd happily move back to my old gaff in Hillfields in Cov. Loved that place.

Surely a good thing then? Brexit benefits!

Haha.

It's the usual stuff. 

When you read about the effects of covid- it was arguably far more influential, with folk unable to work/wanting to be back with family etc.

But, as they were both happening simultaneously, its impossible to tell.

I guess it's easy to pick what you want out of things.
