I am sure anyone who supports democracy, welcomes the demise of the "one party state" on the WMBC council, by the rise of the Liberal Democrats, Conservatives and CAP. BUT what has all this got to do with-
"Chat about matters relating to Ashton"
Come on Peter, there is still plenty of things that want discussing about our town, in a positive way, Grot Spots, under aged drinking and related effects, and many more topics.
I have not viwed this web site for a while and would relegate it to the "recycle bin" if I did not care about our town.
So come on lets discuss what matters ASHTON IN MAKERFIELD"

Peter, no-one's chatting with you because you don't chat, you rant.

Hello,
Whith 24 years old,(in 1976) i was in Ashton learning English.It was the first time i left my country Spain and my city Barcelona.
I still remember the park near the house-school where i was living and learning. I have 5 photos, 2 of the famous park taken the same year, the rest of your city. Only one disco,the fish and ships,the pub and the teacher....monday morning after a sunday journey to see Blackpool....

Salvador, Did you go to Blackpool yesterday?
Yes I went to Blackpool yesterday
Salvador Did you see Blackpool tower?
Yes i saw Blackpool Tower

And then how to explain the family where the city was located very easy.... "Ashton in Makerfield near Wigan"

What a 1976......
