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?

We'll all be flocking here for a beer now...

It's a fucking disgrace

"Three pints of lager please...", "How much you usually pay?" Also, that's their licensing problems sorted as Metro can do what they want.

Have you seen the sort of pond life who hang around smooking in the doorway of it anyway? I'd imagine it'll make the place no better or worse, I'll still be swerving it

They've got a new cocktail menu, I've heard, here's a taster; 'Up On The Roofie', 'Lost Down A Backlane', 'This Is A Shortcut'...

What's it they say about local knowledge? You can only presume the owner is clueless to the fact Metro are almost universally reviled, or it was a particularly large Poker loss.

Good sense of humour from Metro

You're right

 

I also like that across the road at the Balmoral there always used to be a mobility scooter parked up outside, always made me chuckle. I hope it's still there

Papa smurf's drinking den

Under that blue paint theres an ace old building to be seen.

 

Tragic.

 

Bunch of shithouses.

£1.50 for a fosters innit lad, be with you in 10 minutes yeah

I'm surprised we haven't got a poundpub in town yet. Great idea.

Correct, the history and heritage of the place have been violated. Flats opposite Great Moor Street looking like a third division football stand set a presidency unfortunately

Drove past earlier, seemed to be a few in. Also saw a bloke parking up his mobokart outside the Balmoral at the same time.

I haven't been into town for about 3 years. Even then it was only to pop into Boltons for a Pandora charm, it was probably another 2 years before that I was last there for a day/night out.

Truth is, a night out in Bolton is just a few hours of drinking with gangs of sinister morons who've spent most of the week swilling gallons of monster milk protein drinks.

 

They've hit the weekend with £500 to spend on shit bing, fluorescent drinks and cat food, and just want to twat anyone they can, before dragging some god awful tart back to their two bob shitcave so they can attempt to thumb a semi erect cock up their arse.

 

Anyone fancy it?

Bolton as always been a rough as fuck town, you will never change it.

Where do I sign up..

 

Possibly the best description I've read of bolton.. But missing the part where an eastern European that doesn't drink,stands around eyeballing young ladies.

We used to call that corner where The Swan is 'Death Corner'.

 

If you wanted a warm up for the terraces on Saturday, that general area was the place. Fucking madhouse.

Absolute quality!! I'll be chuckling all day

I'm at a MIPIM this week. It's essentially a property fair for Local Authorities to attract investment.

 

Do Bolton have a stand? Do they fook

Say what you want but David Hasselhoff has been on the market today.

 

In your face Paris!

Has Bolton ever really been a good place for a night out? 

 

My boozing life started out when there were places like The Lower Nags Head and The Griffin. Fuck me, enter them places and it really was worrying if you could keep the scars to a minimum

 

The Swan Cellar on a friday night and emerging later on, as said by Bolty, to that corner!!!

 

Only time I really remember Bolton being a decent night out was late 90's when everyone was "loving each other" due to the pills and the music. Bank Street was in it's infancy in terms of bars so it was a night round town, a walk down Bank Street and on to Mondo or Temple

 

Every 6 months I go to the dentist on the edge of town and drive through to see what it's like. Nothing would tempt me for a night out. It's fucking horrible

My experience was 76 til 80. Was a cracking night out then. Town was buzzing fri sat & sun from 12:00 til 02:00. Catered for everyone. Swan corner wasn't that bad, good sport imo. Chippys were magic once the pubs closed. Thing is everyone tipped out at 7pm sharp, no fuckin need for pre drinks crap!
