Always town when on the Heath but when you reach the moors at Chadderton then it needs clarifying. Yonner's tend to call Oldham, town, due to have never ventured to the warmer lowlands.Town, all day every day... No matter where I am in the world, town is Manchester
I work in Oldham and confuse the fuck out of the office when I refer to town... They say "up town" referring to Oldham...
Daft bastards.
You FOC. ;)Blame Petula Clark.
Here in the Lord's country (Dukinfield, Cheshire) we practise speaking slowly for a week before we venture into the badlands known as "town" so the locals can understand us.There's nowt to discuss, you nailed it (I hated typing that)
Manchester or simply town.
Anyone that says different us from Duckenfild
You got that right brother ; )You FOC. ;)
