Never tried to go beyond Burnley, but understand it will go as far as Blackburn.
Have to admit I do like the Manchester "Witch" bus, especially with the price of car parking there.

Catty, perhaps accumulating all those numbers appeals to the puzzle fanatics who enjoy OGFB? I'll continue being old-fashioned and and using the word `thanks'.

Ann in the Rainhall Centre is trying to run a food festival on the 31st March, which I believe is a celebration of homemade food.
Maybe you can ask her to join in and put it in the events here.

Yes, and those pension fund people need to make a return of about 7% per annum to ensure pension funds stay in the black and provide revenue to their clients.
That number is compounded.

To be viable you would have to change shopping habits, and get those people who drive out of town to the superstores to actually walk into the town centre.
There could be an opportunity for car boots, as bargains do tend to draw in folk

I switched off the interview because it contained the pontificating Polly.
Maybe we should go with your suggestion Stanley and shut all the banks. It would be the easiest way to show who was actually correct.

The cherry picker did all the cctv in the town, as I also saw him do the ones outside the police station later.
CCTV is only watched if "something happens", from what I can gather.

The item I found most interesting was building in the extra 10% to the costs, for no real reason I've ever discovered a private company doing so.

Nice to see that Bercow wasn't completely asleep, but if it was a prize fight I think that he would have stopped it.
