Blackburn

   

city description

There are 4,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire - according to The Beatles at least. That’s five students per hole that live in this former thriving centre of the textile industry. Blackburn has spruced itself up in recent times, splashing the cash on a new shopping centre, market place as well as investing in a thriving café and bar culture.

The whole area surround blackburn is a shithole, blackburn down town is a joke, as for burnley goes thats even worse. Not surpriesed everyone doesn't want to live here. added 27 / 06 / 08 01:44
