We had a family mini house there for years. 3 floors including an artic. Took the kids every October and February half term for years. Magical spot.

That's it.
Years ago we got fed up of getting our balls chilled in Manchester and one of our crowd moved to Malta. So we formed the "Long Lunch Club" and went there instead.
Our first gathering on Malta since 2019. Covid. We had one in Chorley in 2023 though. Good, but not the same.

Used to go RHB a few times a year. The Laurel, halfway up the hill, was my fave. Top of the slope nowadays.

It's nearly always on. I usually drop in and can't resist it. Superb pint, so refreshing.

More water bills rises announced today, on top of those already planned.

Privatisation without competition, arguably the worst of both worlds
