I remember the Spinning Jenny opening . It was at the start of the Accrington holiday fortnight , and I think I spent most of the fortnight there .
When they got Boddingtons in , mild and bitter , it was the best pint around .

Ya JCB Boddies was an acquired taste, you either liked it or hated it, I was one of those who loved it, very much different than the normal bitters from Thwaites Duttons and Lions who's bitter was considerably darker. another light bitter I loved was Hartleys bitter, from Ulverston brewery, that was like nectar from the gods

It was the mild , Jaysay , that I enjoyed . I started on mild and stayed on mild , as well as my favourite , Guinness . I never took to bitter .
For a while the Willow Mount and Sacred Heart clubs had Chesters mild , another one I really enjoyed .

Never had Boddies mild JCB, but tried Chesters in the Stop and Rest on occasions, but I've always been a bitter man myself
