How can you call Bolton depressing? You obviously haven't been to Wigan!

oh yes i have - but i don't feel qualified to bitch about wigan in the same way. from what i've seen of it it was pretty bad though, yeah. but i'm sure there's someone else round here willing to review wigan ...

Living in Bolton for five years you must have liked it just a little bit surely. Yes, it rains a lot, but name a town in the North West where it doesn't.

I agree that the town centre could do with a facelift and few new shops but you must admit that its a pretty decent place to go out at night plus the town centre is now being developed and improved slowly but surely.

Bolton pubs are pretty good, cheap and plentiful and although lacking the shiny gloss of Manchester establishments they make up for it in local colour and character.

The inhabitants of Bolton are generally freindly, cheerful and hardy individuals who happily live in this soggy, cold Northern town because for all its faults it is in fact a nice place to live.

Or maybe I'm just saying that because I was brought up there...
