    nooo we are thanks to the Government allowing chartered flights to arrive from India before it as red listed .

    All the 3 problematic areas of Bolton are well known Asian communities .

    Nearly normal .

    But the pubs are playing dodge the police . As soon as they have visited they can relax and allow the customers to relax and dance and have a good time .

    Its what we have all been missing

    I dont get that . AS a seaside town they would be easily supported . WE have even got a new one opening up shortly but it will be geared towards the younger crowds , As we do like a lot of modern music like House ,we may give it an occasional visit .:)

    We lost a lot of our pubs permanently thanks to our useless puppets lining their pockets.

    Sadly, Pubs don't close down for long in my locale, they shut, are boarded up and within weeks pulled down.
    The fences go up and the builders arrive, and in short shift houses, flats and apartments take their place :(
