I'm a stranger
Well now what can I tell you - I did introduce myself but I am not sure if you have several different web sites - well just in case this one if different I am an old oldy at 83 although very new to surfing - I'm getting the slang for net users. If you read my previous installment you will have seen I do n ot live in Accy (Eh I'm learning the quick word for Accrington) I actually live i n the West Midlands in a place called Tipton - the heart of the Black Country - How do I know abouit your web site - well I do have relatives who live in your very nice town (and I mean I that ) and I know most towns have their web sites so I tried to see if Accrington had one and I finished up getting hooked on your page - so I thought why not have ago so here I am - I am not sure what topics to discuss so I will have to look for something interesting an d maybe take part in discussions. I am not a football fan although I do have a look at the results for your team - Iam a bit old in the tooth for pop music and by the way I do not watch Coronation Street Oh dear you may think what is the old boy on about but I fin d it interesting just sending these m essages to see if anyone out there will reply.

Re: I'm a stranger
It's great to have you aboard.
It's also fantastic that you have mastered the internet, something at half your age I'm still trying to do.

Re: I'm a stranger
Thanks to all those members who have welcomed an old timer to your web submit and a man from the Midlands at that. I'm sure I will find something of interest to submit for discussion, By the way no one has yet given me a promise of better weather next time I visit Accy . Theres plenty of time I shall not be visiting until next summer - sorry about that much as I like coming. I am sure someone will tell me how the market is doing and last time I visited there was some alterations going on around that area - what happened to the open air market? I remember seeing a lot of stalls selling second-hand remote controls - maybe in Accrington you have gone Hi-tech and do not need them. By the way I discovered a nice Fish and Chip shop on the Burnley Road. what happened to Chaplins(think i have the name right) in the town centre,
