Whereas I thought it was a belter last year. Never seen so many pubs in such a small town. And we managed to dodge the police horses trying to get everyone back to the station and stay for hours afterwards. 

I pre-booked a cab for 5pm and was drinking in Rawtenstall by 20 past.

Got dry about 10pm

More travel wise

for somewhere local it feels like it takes yonks, I can either do Bolton or Victoria  it’s like 1hour 30mins from leaving house

Scotland-bound TPE train from Piccadilly to Preston and across from there. Assume we’ll be playing Avanti bingo from Wigan on a similar route.

With train times, we can get a lot further in the same time and get back from a lot further away quicker.

might help if we played a bit better, then it won’t feel as much of a slog.

we need to be charging them double when they come to ours, as our place is like a palace compared to their leaky tent !
