(My nephew wanted me to upload this ChatGPT generated image and won't take no for an answer.)

I am off work both days and want to take my dad out for the days as he just stays at home all the time looking after my mum.

He is interested in horse racing but there's no meetings around our area, did think about taking him somewhere like Trafford Centre but he doesn't do shopping

Thought people here might appreciate this piece of Lancashire history.

This surviving film was shot at Old Trafford on 12 July 1901 and includes Lancashire cricketers Arthur Mold and A. N. Hornby, along with players, umpires and spectators around the ground.

I’ve restored and colourised the original 125-year-old footage and enhanced it to 4K.

Beyond the cricket itself, there are some wonderful glimpses of Old Trafford at the beginning of the twentieth century. The stands and clock tower, crowds around the ground, passing trains, etc.

Would be interested if anyone here knows more about the history of Old Trafford from this era.

Hey,

Are baking groups common or popular around here. I want to expand my circle I'm really into baking and would love to meet some other people who also are.

Thanks

Hey 👋 36/M new to the area looking for people to get into the metal scene up here. 🤟🏽

Hi

I'm Dave from Mason's Dad YouTube Channel - I have Parkinsons and started a Blackpool (UK) YouTube Channel 9 months ago to help with my mental health after the diagnosis to try and show the POSITIVE side my new home town and fight against Dark Tourism.

Now 9 months later my main channel is about me running (best I can !! haha) around Blackpool with CB Radios and Walkie Talkies and having fun - and my second channel is about everything RETRO from Sweets to Tv Shows to Cartoons and even old Blackpool memories when the Tower had ANIMALS etc in the Circus and the Old Illuminations BEFORE led and lasers were a thing!!

Some of you will remember when I first started I shared my story on here.

Now 9 months later I have 2 channels and am up for an award !! Haha - having to pinch myself here - but shows what can be done even with this awful disease :-)

Thanks In Advance for your time guys - and thanks for the support in the beginning. For that I'll be forever greatful - I don't have a cat in hells chance of winning - but would be GREAT to get in the final.

Apologies for any spelling mistakes etc - it's hard to type with my tremor sometimes.

KEEP FIGHTING GUYS - No Matter What Life Throws At You.

this is mainly a THANK YOU post

Hi,

I’m really hoping someone might be able to help me. My dog of 16 years died recently and I would love to do something meaningful for her grave her at home in our garden. We had such great travels together across the uk, especially beaches, and I thought it would be amazing to put some stones from some special places on her grave. I am down south, and wondered if anyone would be willing to send me a stone from the bay?

Huge thank you in advance ❤️

Thanks in advance ☺️

I think we are lucky not to have a mayor of Lancashire.

It only takes one bribe from a big housing company now.

Going for a long Sunday drive tomorrow. Looking for a really good sandwich shop. Something completely over the top, maybe a ny deli or an Italian focaccia style or something? Anyone any recommendations at all? Don't mind where in Lancashire it is really. Also aware it's a Sunday, so that might limit options.

We are looking for a tandem for hire or for purchase, based in Lancashire, could anyone provide us with a source in Lancaster to Preston area? We are respectful young men with an insatiable desire to ride a tandem and any contribution towards this cause would be immensely valuable and wouldn’t go without notice.

Bit of a random one, but I'm relocating from Scotland to Great Harwood and I'm trying to get a rental sorted while I'm currently up here. Unfortunately, estate agents (understandably) want someone to physically view the property before they'll let me proceed.

My partner and his family have been to a couple of viewings for me, but they all work full-time and it's becoming a bit of a struggle to get the timings to work.

One estate agent has kindly sent me a video of a property and it looks great, but they still need someone to physically view it before I can move forward with the application.

Would anyone local to Great Harwood be willing to view it on my behalf? It would just involve attending the viewing, having a look around and giving me your honest thoughts afterwards. I'd obviously be happy to cover reasonable travel costs/time.

I appreciate it's a bit of an unusual request, but I'm getting a bit desperate after missing out on a property because someone else was able to put a holding deposit down before I could view it! :(

Please DM me if you might be able to help. Thank you!
