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?

I believe that the Lowery is loaning Bolton museum the Going to the match painting for 3 months from the end of March.

Look after that there print. I once went to one of those auctions in our local church hall which was raising funds for a local choir.
One of the members donated a Lowry print and the dealers in the room were scrambling for it. It made over £100. The member donating it was gutted. He’d only paid a few quid for it but hadn’t realised just how collectible they’d become.

there wasn't a debate

there was just one thick twat who didn't get it

As soon as I pressed Submit I thought it would cause trouble.

In my defence (if I needed one) the one eyed piranha could only see what was going on swimming in one direction. It might have been anticlockwise now I think.

I wasn’t the thick twat in question.
