Accy needs to have a big look at the town , all the market stalls are jumble , broadway are pound shops and charity shops , (i don't mind them but accy has too many ) i see Gibson sports is closeing down as well as farm foods , But on a Plus side We have a winning Market hall !! have the voters ever been in there ??
well thats my input to Accy town center so enjoy !!

Sorry but there are shed loads of parking spaces in accy near the banks, much easier to park in accy than blackburn and it never costs me anything which it pretty much always does in blackburn.

Did you miss that big free car park we have?
The free parking and lots of it is one of the best things about Accrington and why I will be there shortly.

The Saturday market to my knowledge has one stall selling second hand books, fairly sure all the rest are stalls selling new goods.

Not forgetting that that big car park in Blackburn is a nightmare to get around at the best of times

15 years on and the wheel has turned full circle. From what I've heard they aren't renewing the lease because they have more stuff nicked than they sell

The simple fact is we have just got shut of a government who were in power for 13 years using their live today pay tomorrow policy, the affect of which usually only comes into effect when the prevaricators of the debt have retired to the American after diner speaking circuit, the land of TV ads or lazing in the House of Lords, which is, accidentally a place that most of them, whilst in opposition swore blind they would get rid of, arise Lord Michael or Gorbals and Lord Two Jags of Hull

hypocrisy personified

ahh well at least they got rid of poverty for people who worked

The train is a better option from Rishton...takes 5 minutes and leaves Rishton just after 10 to the hour...back 19 mins past each hour. Plus if two people travel one travels half price after 9.30am or any time weekends on a duo ticket. £2 day return for one person so cheaper than bus too
