Re: where can i go?
the lake isnt actually that deep, they drained it a few years ago and it looked manky,with old shopping trollies in it and it was laden with mud, i love going up there with Reece and his mates to feed the ducks and swans, i love sitting there for hours whilst Reece and his mates play on the park...they have a similar lake at Thompson park in Burnley and it makes a lot of money in the summer, they charge £2 per person for half an hour and i think its great

Re: where can i go?
Forgot to tell you this Flashy but on Saturday if you go to Bacup its the coconutters trip round the pubs - they dance in everyone one and if you need someone to hold you up - you've got reece!!!! lol Its the tradition they dance round the boundary and visit all the pubs and they dance and have a drink in each one. I've only done it once and i vowed never to do it again the hangover lasted till easter monday!!! lol
