Unfortunately a series of unforseen events kept me in Sussex rather than at home in Rammy Rob but I'm so pleased it went well for you! I used to go to Radio Rallies in the Leisure Centre in Chorley quite a few years back. It's a bit of a Railway centre historically,so there is a technical link there [ie Railway Road]. A female poet from Chorley was on the Radio this morning and said it was just a "little Market Town". I'm wondering how you ended up there in the first place-is there a local link for you? How big was the attendance in the end? I will certainly get there next time. As you say, there are not so many Northern events but I do get to Golborne if I can! I'm having a "Bexhill Cornish Pastie" for my lunch-good but not the real thing I'm sure
