A homesick accrington man has set up a website while working in Russia.
Roy W launched his site - www.accrington-web.com - while working in Moscow setting up anew factory for *******
which is based at ********
He said "I decided to set up the site because I missed the area and the people. I worked on it at the weekends when I had spare time. i wanted to keep in touch with Accrington people without spending a fortune on telephone calls."
The site has been running for six months and users log on to chat about local issues and swap information.
Roy a commissioning engineer added: "People leave questions and get replies within 24 hours as there is always someone logged on."
hmmm.. interesting, and slightly wrong as well. But what the heck, hopefully we might get some new visitors. Just as well I registered accrington-web.com as well. Nice to hear your letter was published as well Cazzer!
