Well after the busy day I have had I have added the photosI took today to the GALLERY so I can now put my feet up . I have nearly 300 in my section and as I was uploading them found loads more yet to be put on .Any way CHORLEY .PADIHAM & a few more of Accrington etc have been included . I have just found out that my wife has to work in LIVERPOOL next week and as it was once in Lancashire it would be a shame not to take some photos so is there any where you fancy seeing let me know on the FORUM which has LOADS of new topics and something to stir the Lancashire blood and make you tap your feet and put a tear in your eyes , so come on lets talk and remember times from days gone bye as a growwing number of MEMBERS already are its eay to join in just SIGN UP ,LOGIN, JOIN IN .
While I was out taking pictures for the site today some thing hit me .Here in Lancashire we have a rich history of stately homes So I have desided to run a feature of photos and history of THE GRAND HOUSES OF LANCASHIRE
Starting with Gawthorpe Hall in Padiham(pictured) I hope to visit as may of the statley halls of Lancashire as possible look out for the pictures in the gallery.
After a good nigths sleep aided by a couple of hot toddys your intrepied webmaster set off this morning to take some MORE photos for the gallery .This morning it was CHORLEY and this afternoon PADIHAM will be my destination and I will add the pictures to the site later today .I must have now clocked up 1000 miles taking pictures of the towns of Lancashire which not all sites do as alot of pictures on other sites are donated .Dont forget if you would like to see up to date photos of anywhere you used to live in LANCASHIRE please let me know and I will try to oblige.
