Botany Bay - Chorley

[Blue2112]

Went out for the afternoon with Mrs 2112 yesterday and called in to Botany Bay over in Chorley. Loads of City memorabilia in there, signed shirts, framed photos etc some really nice stuff and not too expensive. Found a nice collection of vinyl which is something of an achilles heel for me and ended up buying some Fairport Convention, Free, Back Street Crawler and Terry Reid. Probably end up going back for more.

Drove over to Rivington Pike for a nice walk in some beautiful countryside - all on our own doorstep - and then fell into a cracking traditional countryside pub 'The Yew Tree' for and early evening meal. Food was superb and would recommend if anyones over that way to call in.

Youtree, food is excellent
I wouldnt go into Botany Bay as it pisses me right off that they charge you to get in, same over at Bygone Times. I think they have dropped the charge to get in now.

Paid a fortune to go in few years ago then bought a coffee table for £200 proper eye sore. Mrs loves it but I think its crap. Wish I'd never set sight on the place<br /><br />-- Sat Apr 14, 2012 10:06 pm --<br /><br />Joined: Wed Oct 10, 2007 11:04 pm

I said to the wife as we went in i'm sure they charge but there was nobody on the desk so we just went through.

my frau was in the other week, said they have now dropped the charges. (I dont mean shoplifting, just the cost of getting in).

What's 'botany bay', a shop or summat?

Why do they charge to get in?

A lad I know went to a stag do near Botany Bay, apparently if you get on a boat down there and go far enough out the laws regarding strippers and brass are no longer applied. Basically these 2 birds did a lesbian show and then the stag and a few other lads went through them. Plus there was a bar and everything.

It's a big mill which has been turned into a shopping outlet on the side of the M61 in Chorley. It's ok nothing special but they had a fair bit of City memorabilia on sale, some nice stuff for sure.
