Smiley Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Went to similar in Stockport for the Jubilee, thought it was belting. Believe they have a watered down version every month. Maybe Bolton Council should consider similar. Brings folk in. From the little I experienced of the Bolton festival on Sunday afternoon, thought it was spot-on. Lots of familiar faces out and about. Everyone seemed to be in good spirits. Had some top notch Korean street food. £10. Only expensive if you don’t enjoy it. Edited September 1, 2022 by Smiley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The little gardens either side of it is a nice touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not in Crawley Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 It's really not that shit, no one is saying it's Venice but the inverted snobbery of just dismissing it altogether is a bit poor from Boltonians. Also did anyone try the free Octogan kids weekend or the museum? My youngest loved them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolty58 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Went to a place called the Naked Apple Cidery last night up in the Perth hills. Bandicoots and Quenda's running around in the place all around the clientele. I was thinking 'how novel to be drinking amongst wildlife', then I remembered calling in for a pint in the Griffin a couple of weeks ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would involve settling on a single place to develop I should think. Similar to Altrincham market, Crewe and Stockport I guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
