Near Pilsworth - just off the motorway there - really nice lunch - you can book yourself on courses for cake making and chocolate making - a few of our kids have been from school its excellent - but expensive (think about £60 for the day).
The wedding cakes are out of this world - will takes some pics today and upload em on here later.

I'm not from Bacup originally (nor am I related to anyone there!!!) but moved there in 1977 and lived there until I moved to Spain in 2006. I know all the jokes about inbreeding and that it has a pretty bad rep but I honestly always found it a nice quiet place to live. It is a bit isolated however and you have to drive a fair way to get to any decent shopping or entertainment facilities.

The people are friendly I always found, but very insular. When I first moved there strangers would turn around in pubs, for example, and say "You're not from round here are you, you talk funny" - I am from Lancashire, all of 40 miles away!
