Just wondering whether the people who live there call it Bath, or Barth? I mentioned earlier about visiting my cousins there, they said Baath, a source of great amusement to a Rochdalian with a broad accent. Mind you if your from Rochdale, you have to take your amusement where you can find it I imagine. |

Yes, we are often to be found sitting on the border fence, pointing east and laughing ourselves silly. |

a few years ago now, we were staying with my mum in Liverpool during a February half term was the week I climbed scafell. I went the hard way up with my crampoms.
anyway while we were there saints were away to Rochdale. so I got tickets to go watch. it got snowed off. not a happy bunny.
they rescheduled the game for a Wednesday night, so had to drive all the way up and bloody lost two nill.I did not get home till early hours of the morning.
but in the local bolder before the game and everyone was really friendly.

I like Border Morris, Molly dancers and rapper sword dancers but there is no getting away from the fact that the Britannia Coconutters must be the most eccentric |
