Great Harwood
I'm going out tonight around Great Harwood. Every time i've been over there with friends, we always seem to be in the wrong pub at the wrong time.
i.e. Too quiet or too late.
Is there a best time to be in certain pubs. We have to go to the Cross Axe(s) for the karaoke.
Can anybody help please.

Re: Great Harwood
Sorry Accyjay - I like this section of Accyweb (the booze/pub section lol), but I'm no use to you. Last time I went Great Harwood was about ten years ago, Cross Axes was the place to be but no idea now. I hope it was a good night anyway and you found some good drinking places.

Re: Great Harwood
Thanks. I'll remember that next time. We only went in the Cross Axes last night for the karaoke (girlfried wanted to enter their comp). There was only 6 people who entered it. One of the girls that was out with us (un-invited), was a right pain & whinged all night. We ended up going back to Accy at 10:30, didn't even stay for the results. I think the girlfriend would have won it.

I don’t usually go out on a Sunday anymore due too getting up early for work and especially when you could stay out till 1.00am ish, not recommended.
I think the busiest most popular pubs are as Blackburn raver suggests.
I suppose these days its difficult being in the right place at the right time, due too the extended hours. Once a day when it was 11.00 closing everybody that was going out that night would probably be out for around 8.00-8.30 ish and the most popular pubs would be busy. These days it’s not the same; it appears that everybody goes out at different times. I know if I’m going out and it’s too nothing special I won’t bother until about 10.00-10.30 ish, even going out at that time I’m still going to get 3 hours in. hehe
It’s funny though because you could be in a particular pub at say 9.00 and it would be heaving but if you were to get there at say 9.30 the same place could be dead, you’ve just got to hope you’ve got it right and you’re in with the crowd as they move. I hope that make sense? Hehe
I suppose its the same everywhere Accy, Blackburn etc.
