Worsley - an apology to rickmcfc

[BTH]

I went to visit an old friend in Monton yesterday as it was the Monton Festival. Anyway, after a drink in the pub across the canal from lighthouse (!) we went for an afternoon stroll along the canal.

After walking for a mile or so we arrived in Worsley. I spotted a pub (The Bridgewater) which, she reminded me, I had been in many years before and so I would like to apologise if I have misled rickmcfc because I have, after all, been to Worsley before.

However, after ambling around the picturesque Worsley Green (surely the heart of Worsley?) and spying an ancient noticeboard topped with the legend 'City Of Salford' I can also absolutely and categorically now confirm that Worsley is indeed, as I suspected, very much a part of Salford and not, alas, a part of Manchester.

Sorry rickmcfc.

Maybe all of these companies have their addresses wrong aswell as me. I think you should start to contact them sharpish as this silly little personal vendetta is getting out of hand, and slightly worrying. On every page listed below is the companies address.

Do stop being so emotional and pathetic Rick and no, it's not a "silly little personal vendetta." Let's just call it a site visit and BTW, here's another one for you to stick on your list:

See what I did there?<br /><br />-- Sun Jul 04, 2010 7:03 pm --<br /><br />
