Accrington Carnival
Its on June 18th which is a week this Saturday, why hasn't anything been said anywhere about it? Other than the one banner I've seen and a bit in the Observer saying that Cain Dingle will be there, there's been nothing...can anyone tell us about whats going to be on, what time it starts and the route it is taking this year

Re: Accrington Carnival
This the route taken from the Accrington Lions website
Starting on Thorneyholme Rd
Procession Route:- Oueens Road, left on to Whalley Road, straight on through traffic lights at East Gate/Castle Street junction, continue on Whalley Road passing the Mayoral viewing podium into Abbey Street to traffic lights at Eastgate, carry on straight through traffic lights onto Plantation Street, turn left onto Park Street which is the dispersal area.

Re: Accrington Carnival
apparently, something like....
Thorneyholme Rd, Queens Road, Whalley Road, Abbey Street, Plantation street... 'stuff' going on at the start on Thorneyholme and at the end at the college I think.
This may help?? Welcome to Accrington Lions
hmmmm - don't think that's turned into a link but you can type it in if it doesn't when I press send!! lol (bit rubbish at this technical malarky!)
edited after...haha - it did turn into a link but it renamed itself to welcome to accrington lions

Reason: whether a link worked

Re: Accrington Carnival
I can't see what the attraction is about Cain Dingle(Jeff Hordley)...he always looks like he could do with a good wash with a big chunk of Carbolic soap.......designer stubble my bum(Jim Royle - modified for the family forum)

She is aware it's carnival not carnal ? Seeing as how spelling isn't so highly rated in Dingleland.
